Though we didn't meet Patricia, all was as promised and a little bit more! a bottle of wine, fresh eggs, +++

The house is superb and incredibly comfortable - my family wants to move!

The location was perfect - opposite the water but only a short walk into the main street full of shops, cafes, restaurants and a cinema.

We chose this location even though we were planning to explore Auckland (short ferry ride). However, we loved Devonport so much that we spent our time exploring this beautiful town, eating, browsing he wonderful book shops and watching a few movies. Only saw Auckland as we drove through it but don't think we missed too much.

Make sure you turn left out the gate at some stage and have a coffee at Platters - only 1-200m away. Beautiful coffee opposite the water - and apparently the food is great too.
