Nice green peaceful time not too far from Raglan with some amazing coastline

What a perfect place to weather a storm! Stayed here with family and friends for Te Aranga/Easter and watched the wild weather from our accommodation but were safe and sound inside. Had all seasons in a weekend, so still managed a couple of strolls along the surf beach and the estuary and also to Wairēinga/Bridal Veil Falls, as well as taking in the view from the separate deck in the garden. Great kitchen for cooking up a storm (including hot cross buns!) and easily one of the cleanest places we've ever stayed. Excellent.

The moment we stepped in the door, we were blown away by the cleanliness, the use of space, and the incredible shower (with the shower head being nick-named Godzilla by us). The view was the most amazing welcome, closely followed by discovering the local treats in the fridge. Far enough, yet not too far from Raglan, meant that we could enjoy the great local coffee and then escape the crowds by driving back along gravel roads (along the coast and around Mt Karioi).It was the perfect location for a quiet weekend for us (after dropping the teenagers to Sound Splash)- from reading on the couch, in between wee jaunts out, through to hot chocolates (with the local milk) under the stars on the deck. Whether you are wanting to hide away from the crowds (yet go and grab a coffee) for a couple of days, or somewhere relaxing to head back to after a day of swimming, surfing, or meandering around the coast, we cannot recommend Sue and John’s place enough.

Really liked this place as it has an amazing ocean and rocks view. Very nicely presented and well equipped with good quality linens. It was in a quiet cul de sac and was private, although it could depend who was staying downstairs as the lower level is booked out separately.It was not far from Raglan which was great. Would stay here again if in the area.

From the moment we walked in the door, it felt like we were on a retreat. The layout of the house, the bush, birdsong and little river, made it feel so peaceful and restful....we didn't want to leave! Great for a winter stay and looking forward to one day, coming back in summer.

We enjoyed our stay at this quiet contemporary location. Close driving proximity to township and beach. We enjoyed the walks and the wood burner kept the whole place warm and cosy in the evening. We enjoyed the board games and the ability for outdoor fresco meals.

Thank you for another lovely stay here, great location and views!

Is an amazing place to stay. Easy to walk and enjoy nearby Whale Bay. To hear the roar of the ocean from the place makes it special. And a great host
