Suzanne was the perfect host. She and her husband John were welcoming, friendly, helpful and there for me if I wanted anything or needed to know anything. I felt "at home" immediately. The accommodation was spacious, very comfortable (including the bed!), extremely clean and peaceful - the perfect place to stay and recharge after my journey from UK. Suzanne had left several lovely and welcome extra touches such as some fruit, muesli, bread, butter, jam and honey, home baking - even an Easter egg! The accommodation was easy to find, parking was right next to it and check in was easy. A lovely setting where I could sit and watch and listen to the birds, including Tuis, in the native bush - so relaxing and "New Zealand" - and yet it was a very short walk to the shopping centre with its cafes, restaurants etc. (even a supermarket) and public transport to the city. I enjoyed my stay very much and would definitely come again. Highly recommended!! Thank you Suzanne and John.
