Everything was great. John was very welcoming and made sure everything was okay and we could ask if we wanted anything. Our place was lovely. Very relaxing. It had everything we needed and was clean. The place was well appointed. We enjoyed being able to use the pool. It was a short drive into Kerikeri and is set in a nice rural orchard outlook. Waipapa shops were very handy as well. We enjoyed going to the markets, exploring the beaches, and for walks plus enjoyed dining out and having coffee in town. Everything was there. The movie theatre is handy too. There is heaps to do in the area. We definitely recommend Keri Country Cottage.
