Mark was a wonderful host. He made us feel welcome immediately. We joined him to watch rugby in his living room with a drink and a chat. We could use the kitchen freely. The bed was comfortable and warm. In the morning we shared a cooked breakfast. He gave us tips on walks around the beautiful local area, his home being right on the road up to Mt Wellington. A very easy stay with a generous, interesting and good-natured man who does airbnb how it should be done.
