We are one of the highest locations. Enjoy a long lay in nestled up into the hillside of little mount Iron, with panoramic views of Lake Wanaka,surrounding mountains,and forever changing views. Enjoy the out door bath tub with open skies,bird songs or the night skies. . With the smell of rosemary at your toes. Cosy up into the open loft with your book or pod cast.
