Thank you both Shirley And Wayne for the wonderful hospitality and generosity.
Your place was nicely presented, comfie bed with peaceful rural views while having a morning cuppa. The extras such as Christmas cake & fruit mince pies were a very enjoyable bonus.
Cambridge is only a 15 minute drive away with lots of dinner choices.
I hope to come back to the beautiful Maungatautari mountain area later in the year and make use of that enormous bath!
