We were made exceptionally welcome, the scenery is beautiful and Allie and Trent will interact with you as much or as little as you want. If your going to New Plymouth this is the place to stay, very private and has all you need, the flat is self contained but they are always on hand if you need anything, you will need a car but its not far to the city, as we are moving to the area they introduced us to people and have helped us out, I can't rate this place highly enough.
