What a lovely cottage and property! Lots of little touches to make you feel at home and get you started immediately. We loved the farm fresh eggs and appreciated the bowl of fruit, selection of breakfast cereals, local honey and milk. Perfect location to explore Wharariki Beach and Farewell Spit without having to drive so far with young children. Short walk to the local beach and local cafe (which was closed both mornings we were there but open for dinner). Kids absolutely loved exploring the pond in front of the house and we as adults enjoyed watching all of the birdlife from the front porch. Thank you James for a great stay exploring this really special part of NZ.
