I thoroughly enjoyed my night in a double room with partial ocean view. My room and bed were very comfortable. I hiked to the beach before sunset. There was no food choices other than what you bring. They sell frozen pizza and a few basic other things for purchase while the office is open. They give you a small amount of Wi-Fi free. Otherwise you can purchase 10 GB for $5 which I did. Shared kitchen and bathrooms. Friendly roosters that you will meet quickly if you’re eating any food outside… Gorgeous sunrise over the ocean. I recommend staying here priced affordably for any budget.

Unfortunately we didn't quite realise just how small the cabin we booked was. I suppose this is not the facilities fault as they haven't falsely advertised it but it was seriously small. Once the sun went down if you weren't going out you were pretty much stuck laying on the bed as there's no room really to sit anywhere else.I think that they should maybe put on the website just how small they are so you know exactly what you're walking into

Thank you for taking the time to review Darryn! Lovely to have you to stay at the Barn. We note you booked our most affordable option for your stay at the most popular national park in NZ. The Queen cabins or one of our self contained options may work better for you next time if space is a priority. Do get in touch with one of our friendly team to help you with this. As you say, we do put accurate advertising for all of our guests to see, it's a shame it spoiled your stay when you knew what you'd booked. We have fabulous faciltities and relaxing areas (as you'll see these usually a highlight for most of our guests) so I'm not sure why you stayed in your cabin and didn't enjoy them! We would have happily helped you with your concerns had you let us know at the reception. All the best with your travels! :)

Really loved the glamping tent, location, on-site coffee and food nearby. Tour I arranged through the camp was great. Washrooms could have been cleaner.

It’s a nice casual place to stay. More backpackers style but friendly and easy. We loved that they left out surplus garden produce like tomatoes, apples and peppers. The cafe next door is great for a good meal and a drink
