Fantastic location and view if both the beach and Mount Taranaki. Spacious house with good sized rooms, a fully equipped kitchen with most appliances available. Having the fire place was lovely. Took us a while to work out the ventilation to deliver warm air to the other rooms on colder days but we got there in the end. Prompt reply from host always. Very small mention, although none of us had problems during our stay regarding hot water (with 7 people staying may need to ration hot water use), on the morning of check our prior to check out time two people had shower and found water was icy cold for some reason...
Overall for a group, the place is lovely and would definitely stay again.
