Technically this was our second stay at the cottage albeit without a break from the first one due to the COVID-19 restrictions. Due to the ever decreasing number of flights leaving New Zealand we had to leave prematurely and so never experienced the full transformation of the abundant surrounding trees as they moved from summer into autumn. This is a top class AirBnB location; the cottage is spacious and modern with thoughtful touches throughout. Our combined stay was almost 4 months long, and in all that time we had to make very few additions to the kitchen utensils to meet our own particular needs - everybody needs prosecco glasses, don't they? :-). For anyone needing a good internet connection - and in our case, when regular Zoom meetings became essential , I can confirm that the ultra-fast fibre broadband connection is outstanding. We found the expansive tree-lined lawn surrounding the cottage a very relaxing environment, and the resident family of rabbits, pheasants, quails, pukekos and fantails a constant source of source of amusement. All in all it was a real pleasure to stay here, and our hosts Godfrey and Crystal could not have been more helpful.
