Stayed here for a long weekend and found the garden beautiful to look out onto from the bed - very peaceful and the private patio area catches the afternoon sun! Croissants and granola and milk in the fridge was put out for our first mornings breakfast (yum!) and had a nice recommendation from Katharine for a local sculpture cafe on our final day. We had a car to get around and location was great for driving to either Ocean Beach, Napier and Te Mata Peak.
