Overall a good stay here! Sparkling clean, tidy, with everything you need. Also a very close drive to everywhere in Kerikeri.
We stayed with our 5 month old and the in laws. Plenty of space in the house for us all and for the portacot and pram etc.
The shared gravel driveway to the house is really quite bad if you don’t have a 4 wheel drive, which we didn’t, so our car scraped on the bottom a few times. There were lots of pot holes in the gravel driveway which were very deep which made it quite scary to drive over, and I can imagine if it was raining this would be quite an issue.
In saying that, the hosts private driveway is lovely, although steep - it is concreted and smooth. Also plenty of parking and a big area to turn around in.
We were a bit sad to see the pool wasn’t attached to the brew house, and that it was a part of the hosts house. Our fault for not reading the reviews and description in depth, as it does clearly state this. The photos made it seem like it was a part of the brew house. Also didn’t realise the brew house was so close to the hosts house, but this wasn’t an issue. We didn’t really see or hear them! The hosts are very considerate.
One of the beds (in the main room) is a little uncomfortable but not unbearable! Easily fixed with a mattress topper or something of the sort. Clean linen and towels.
The other bed was lovely.
Overall a nice and comfortable stay with everything we needed. The things mentioned above wouldn’t stop us from staying here again.
Thank you for having us, and we hope our little one didn’t squeal and ‘shout’ too loud!
