We were only passing through Gisborne for one day/night, but Linda's place made us definitely want to come back for a longer visit. Her beds were super comfortable, and the living area and kitchen were spacious and welcoming. Just up the hill from gorgeous Wainui Beach, and only a 10 minute drive from downtown, we squeezed in visits to the museum and historic sites, walks around the historic downtown, a beach walk, and a great dinner at The Works. Also discovered the vibrant Saturday Farmers's Market just before we left town. Thank you for a lovely visit.
