A lovely place, we felt at home there. It was welcoming, cozy and clean. Meryl was very responsive to any questions or issues we had. A few local eateries were closed for the winter months but the kitchen had all we needed to prep the food we'd brought we with us. Great location for a visit to Cathedral Cove, and a pleasant 40 minute walk to the Whitianga ferry where there are cafes, restaurants and shops.
