Nicky's place was the perfect place to start our NZ journey after a long flight. We were warmly greeted by our host with a generous slice of tasty Christmas cake. The surroundings and the house were perfectly suited to young kids. There were horses, rabbits, alpacas and various toys to entertain the kids and give them space to roam around. The location was very quiet and close to some beautiful beaches.
The house was clean and well equipped. If you arrive from the airport do your groceries before reaching the home as there isn't much to shop in close proximity. The only thing we found a bit odd is that we could not lock our doors from the inside but for the rest we had a very enjoyable time.
