Gypsymoon Face Art will be painting little (and big) faces with some fantasia while others can have a spin on the hula hoops.

From school to B & B

The Old School has been recently renovated by Craig and Blanche. It has retained much of its original character. Rimu tongue and groove panelling feature throughout most rooms. Also Rimu battened ceilings. The wooden features create a warm, relaxed environment, yet it is obviously an old school! New Entrants, Art, Library and Senior rooms are 4 large ensuited guest rooms.
