We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this magical place. The accomodation is beautifully designed and equipped. We enjoyed the beautiful view of the water, the close access onto a beach with its amazing pohutukawa trees and relaxing in the spa bath after using the kayaks to explore the area and after a quick swim in the estuary. Heather and Alan could not have been more helpful and hospitable. This is such a special place to enjoy the stunning setting and the peace and tranquility. Although we had no cell phone reception, we used the wifi to communicate as needed. There are cafes within quite easy reach, but local walks and just sitting outside enjoying our surroundings kept us close to home most of the time. The accomodation has a small private deck and a lawn which leads onto the sand. Plenty of bird life and many native plants in the lovely garden.
