Doris and James made us feel very welcome in their home. They were charming people to meet and we really enjoyed their company and the many discussions from world politics to environmental issues. They gave us a great run down on the history of not only the area, but of New Zealand. They are keenly interested and well informed in so many topics. They are passionate about their home and Arthur's Point, and showed us around their beautiful home and garden. The weather was chilly, but the room was so comfortable and Doris provided us with an extra heater. The view from the room is magnificent, overlooking the valley below and the mountains. The morning sun shone onto our bedroom balcony and the couch in the room was so comfortable to relax on. We loved Doris's homemade bread and her lesson on bee keeping, which, with her garden, she is so proud of . We have no hesitation in highly recommending this lovely home. Thank you so much Doris and James. Christina and Paul Gordon, Ireland.
