10 of us booked for a weekend in Ophir 7 of us at Pitchers and three booking at Maranui Lodge. Gorgeous home (Maranui Lodge) BUT it was advertised as breakfast included which was very lacking! Two containers of breakfast cereal in an otherwise empty pantry, no milk in sight even to use this cereal. Very frustrating !! We found out the manager lives in Ophir which left us more amazed that even a carton of milf would have been easy to pop into the fridge, maybe a tin of fruit! Advertised as tourist rail trail we suggest you ignore breakfast included. Mouse/rat check would be advantageous too !

If ratings were given for number of TVs, then this cottage would get 5-stars. HOWEVER, most of the remotes had flat batteries so they were useless. Even worse were the breakfast provisions, these were the poorest on the Rail Trail i.e only 2 x small packets of butter for 4 x guests, small individual packs of ordinary cereal and the hot water ran out after 3 showers. Great decor, but it means nothing if the breakfast is terrible. I wouldn't recommend it.
