Really love this place! This is our second time staying in this house, but different owners this time. The house is so convenient, has everything you need and super close to the shops! Such a great stay!

A great place to stay. Really well equipped bach and amazing view

The place is quite easy to find. We met Pete up the driveway to the house. We found him very obliging, friendly and informative, great person. The property was even better than we imagined. the house was very clean, spacious, well furnished, all the amenities you could possibly need and amazing views. We absolutely loved our stay and it felt really homely. We didn't really want to leave and will recommend to other friends of ours.

Clean, tidy and comfortable room and bed.Hosts were friendly and helpful.Wonderful views from the property, with good access to town.Peaceful - a great place to chill out!

Beautiful people, beautiful accommodation and very convenient location. They couldn't have been more hospitable. We had a lot of fun at the beach hop, and if they will have us back, we will be there again next year!

What a fantastic wee cabin to relax in peaceful surroundings. Has everything you need for a wee break away. Enjoyed the short but sweet friendly visits from Dakota a real treat, and loved watching the kererū, definitely coming back.

Very pleasant stay. Super neat and convenient accommodation with a friendly accommodating host. Will.book again.

Jenny was a lovely host who contacted us by phone before our scheduled stay to share details of the b-n-b. Did we like the A2 milk which they sourced from a nearby farm? Did we have any special dietary requirements for the continental breakfast, and so on. Just generally we had a good chat so that it was a pleasure to meet her in person finally and to be greeted with bowls of fresh fruit from the property, and Jenny's sourdough bread when he say down to breakfast in the morning. We stayed overnight in this nicely outfitted b-n-b to attend a party about 6 km distant at the Pūkorokoro Miranda Shorebird Centre. We'd recommend this b-n-b and can we also recommend a visit to the shorebird centre. It has hides for viewing a wide range of shorebirds, and in particular does international work to preserve the feeding grounds along the shores of the Yalu River - part Chinese, part North Korean - for the godwits as they journey each year from New Zealand Aotearoa to Alaska to breed. I think Jenny sometimes does voluntary work down at the centre. I met Maarten the day of our departure, - a musician, and we had a good chat around that. Interesting that he works with sound, because perhaps the dominant feeling we took away from this lovely Waitakaruru property was how silent the night was. A quiet boon for suburban Aucklanders . . .
