This is our second visit to Peter's studio and he was there to meet us at the top of the funicular. It is is modern, sleek and clean. The design yields very efficient bathroom and kitchenette spaces. Peter stocks the essentials to provide a hearty breakfast for his guests, including yogurt, milk, orange juice, coffee and fresh fruit.
From the comfortable king bed is an intoxicating and ever changing view of the Wellington Harbour.
Oriental Parade is an upscale living area with walking access to restaurants, beach, promenade and Te Papa National Museum. The bus stop is 2 blocks away, for access to more remote areas of the city.
A funicular provides access to the house, works well, and provides additional security.
The new addition this year is a gentle Border collie, Eiffel, who failed farm work.
Peter was on hand to help us and say good by on the morning of our departure.
