Idyllic surroundings—gorgeous view from the room (a self contained room and bathroom on the upper floor of a lovely house). Immaculate, well appointed. We slept like logs after hearing the call of the kiwis at dusk. Conveniently located within a short drive of Russell, Colette was a wonderful host who made sure we had everything we needed. Would highly recommend as a base to anyone exploring the Bay of Island. Our only retreat is that we only booked one night. Thank you Colette!
