Even after coming back home, I am glowing. The place itself is in a wonderful location: private, lush, and the space has exactly everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. Jan is a lovely person (as is her feline companion!). What I love most about the Coach House is the history of the home and the genius ways it was converted from a stable/hayloft/coach house, into a superb tiny home. The old hardware, cool fact sheet about the renovation, and fantastic textiles/design features makes this a treasure trove. Having breakfast outside overlooking the expansive garden was bliss! Jan made some of the best plum jam and grapefruit marmalade I've ever enjoyed and was so thoughtful to have some Vogel's, milk, tea, and coffee at the ready.

Also, it's a great walking-distance into town and the views during the walk are superb. The hill coming back is steep (even compared to Wellington) so we opted to return home via Uber/Ola and that was easy and reasonably-priced.
Jan had everything we could possibly want or need. When we come back to Napier, I want to savour the Coach House again for a longer stay!
