Truly an executive stay. A perfect spot for an extended family visit. Ample rooms with generous wardrobes and storage. Beds were comfortable with additional bedding available if we got cold. Lots of separate living areas to enjoy. Kids enjoyed some frisbee on the lawn and we loved looking at the stars and the sunrise from the deck. Kitchen was particularly superb with lots of room to all cook together and lots of high quality cooking equipment. The ping pong table was well used in the garage with heaps of laughter. To top it off tasteful decor and great books to read. I always enjoy it when the host provides some local colour items for entertainment, here we had a NZ board game about the economy from the 80s and a book about rebuilding the railway after the earthquake. An absolutely superb stay, we will most definitely be back.
