We had a great stay. Charmaine and her partner are excellent hosts, very friendly and conversational. The bed was very warm and comfortable. The house is (as others have said) full of antiques and curiosities, and they will happily tell you all about anything that catches your fancy. It's also only 20 minutes to walk to the zoo, the airport, central Kilbirnie, and the bus stop to go farther into Wellington (so, great location).
