Anna & Brian were exceptional hosts. They greeted us as we arrived at the property, showed us through the property and made us feel most welcome. The Barn was exactly as described and more.

The Barn is well appointed - a good indicator is the quality of the knives on offer (they were great) - and there are few little extras included...a nice bottle of local Pinot Gris, local yoghurt and fresh fruit for breakfast.

The tennis court and pool are in great condition. We took time to explore the bays and walks at the local Mahurangi regional park but unfortunately a spot of rain right on high tide stopped us from kayaking down the Te Muri inlet and round to Sullivans Bay - something we will definitely be back for!

Te Muri Ridge is well worth a visit - for locals and tourists alike - only 25 minutes from the Auckland Harbour Bridge but so secluded.

Thank you Anna & Brian. We will see you again soon.
