Great location, so peaceful. It's close enough to the city and far enough away to avoid the hustle and bustle of provincial city life. Staying in close proximity to the owners is not an issue as they were very respectful of our privacy - vice versa.
The spa pool was awesome and the views of the maunga (Taranaki) from the short stroll up the little hill behind the house were amazing.
Wi/fi is available however connectivity was problematic at times but it was fine for the duration of our three-night stay.
