A warm friendly welcome from Karyn and Terry, with excellent communication beforehand, was a wonderful start to our trip….a first time to New Zealand. They went out of their way to make us feel very welcome, and to introduce us to New Zealand! Food and coffee were prepared with great care, and we were introduced to many Kiwi specials. Cleanliness was top of the line, with extras to make this an enticing stay. (Blankets, treats, kettle, coffee and tea in the room, access to the deck, beautiful view from the bedroom….). We had many great chats, with lots of laughter, and lots of information shared. Bottom line…A very special place to stay!
