About

Your hosts Julie and Jonathan are keen hikers and bird enthusiasts with extensive knowledge of the local plants, birds and walks.
Enjoy panoramic views of the forests, glaciers and mountains of Westland National Park from your room. Our grounds are specially landscaped and planted with native trees to provide habitat to attract native birds. This year we have had bellbirds and fantails nesting here and tui and keruru frequent the garden to feed on the many flowering flaxes, fuschia and kowhai.

Ribbonwood is minutes from the Franz Josef village and 10 minutes from the glacier. Free Wifi and guest computer. At Ribbonwood we pride ourselves on our friendly personalised advice, catering for just a few guests because we want you to feel at home
