Gill, the host, was a complete delight and her home is simply stunning. Modern, bright, well equipped and super clean and tidy. The location is superb - on a hill with an awesome view over Hawkes Bay and over to Esk valley hills and it's incredibly peaceful. Gill was warm, welcoming and the hospitality was second to none. She made fab recommendations of places to go / things to do and we loved them all. We had a great time and it was hard to leave.....Very special.
