Good Place to Stay

The property is easy to find and in a pleasant area near Havelock North. The property was clean and comfortable. If you intend staying more than two night note there is nowhere to hang clothes. We would stay there again.

Cosy and central to Havelock North

We had a lovely weekend in Havelock North. Appreciated being able to bring our small dog with us! The bnb was clean and cosy and set on the owners lovely garden. It did get quite hot in the Hawkes Bay summer sun! We bought a fan but even this wasnt enough!

Very tidy and peaceful

Being down a quiet no exit road meant it was a very peaceful rural location but still close to havelock north centre. The place is very compact but has all the basics covered and is very well maintained.
