Rose's place is a little gem as is Rose herself! Everything she says in the description and more. After our time there this has become our favorite NZ holiday destination. Drifting down the estuary river is idyllic - and the surf beach is a great contrast. Sunsets over estuary so memorable. Something for everyone. The cottage opens right up to her lovely garden and feels private. Dog loved it! We I can't rate this holiday highly enough and Rose was so lovely to deal with right from the start and incredibly helpful. We will be back!!!
