The Gazebo Backpackers really is a home. Paul the owner and his new puppy Raichel habitate the sleepout while their guests enjoy the main house with its unique facilities. Accommodation is usually limited to 5-6 people to allow for a relaxed, friendly feel to the place. In addition, a few garden tent sites are also available. Wheelchair access is limited. Be assured that the Gazebo and all of Golden Bay welcomes our GLBT guests. Families are welcome but young people need to be over 8 years old as the facilities could be considered dangerous for unsupervised children. |
