What we planned to do: Hiking Taranaki, hiking pouakai cirquit. What we did: Sunbathing on the terrace, enjoying the pool, discovering all the lovely details of the cottage, reading, relaxing, playing with Herbie. Why? This cottage is one of the reasons Airbnb was invented for. It's absolutely fantastic with every single detail. All the rooms are big and well equiped. Everything was clean and well cared for. It's a hidden gem. We would definitly come back again and stay for longer. Thanks for everything, Bruce.
