Standing on the front step, you can see the La Gra Vineyard and just beyond the old red barn is Wingate Lane which offers casual dining Tues-Sun. Only 15 minutes up the road is the Pukaha Mt Bruce National Wildlife Centre, home to endangered wildlife such as brown kiwi, whio (blue duck), takahē, kōkako, kākā and tuna (longfin eels).
There is a cooker so that you can make yourself a brew (tea, coffee and milo provided) and an icebox for your food and beverages.
Just behind the hut, the modern outhouse is equipped with a flushed loo and a hot gas shower. We provide your linen and towels.
Come with your phones charged as there is no electricity. We are open Oct-April and provide a starter pack for the brazier but if you are wanting to sit outside all evening, we recommend that you bring some extra wood.
