We stayed for one night on our way home to Auckland from Wellington. Annette and her husband are welcoming hosts. She helped us with dinner recommendations and things to do. Their garden knowledge is fantastic and they were very happy to share their knowledge and experience with us. A lovely relaxing place with a very comfy bed and atmosphere.

Was a great place to stay, as it turned out I knew the owners and had some excellent talks about people we knew and grew up with. Apart from that I would recommend this as one of the best, secluded places you could wish to stay close to town.
