The visitor can explore the restored cottage and surrounds, fish in the Waitaki River, tramp in the hills, horse trek by prior arrangement or simply kick back and enjoy the space and tranquility far from the maddening crowds. It is a serviced unit and assistance can be provided through the Kurow Holiday Park.
