Mark and Kristy are wonderful hosts. They greeted us warmly when we arrived. There were thoughtfully placed welcome items--we loved the NZ chocolate! They were quick to answer any questions and went above and beyond to make us feel at home and welcome. The accomodation was spotless, modern, fully equipped with anything you may need (and we stayed a month so we needed a lot). It was kid friendly, with toys, games, books, and colouring supplies available for our use. The tv includes Netflix and Disney Plus. The wifi was reliable and super fast. The scenery was gorgeous and we had access to fresh and delicious oranges, lemons and avocados from the trees. Kristy brought us over a broccoli and rhubarb from her garden. The location is in the beautiful countryside, however you are still only 10 minutes from shops and restaurants and 20 minutes from the ocean and all New Plymouth has to offer. We cannot say enough about this lovely space and anyone reading this should book right away.
