An enjoyable stay with easy going and accommodating hosts. The place is sparkling clean, the bed linens and bathroom towels are good quality, and the soaps and cleaning products provided are cruelty free and eco friendly. You'll have your own entrance area, which gets really nice sun in the afternoon, and the spring time garden smells amazing. I especially loved the location. It's 5-10 mins walk to buses that go into the CBD and just a couple of minutes walk to a park that connects to an extensive green belt where you can walk off-road all the way to the city, Greerton, and the Lakes area. There are pockets of native forest, a historic pā site, and wetland areas with bird life. Cycling would take this to a whole new level of enjoyment. It's also possible to walk through the park to the thermal pools at Fernland Spa, about 10 mins stroll. Thank you Pablo and Kate for a lovely and restful time away.
