We absolutely loved our time at Sophia’s Rest. Initially we had different dates booked for our stay but when our family event was postponed, Ian was extremely understanding and was able to move things around very easily with no hassle. It was great to be able to come back to the house at the end of each day to such a tranquil and peaceful place. The house is a treasured home, warm and inviting and absolutely beautiful both inside and out. Everything exceeded our expectations. Ian was a wonderful host, extremely responsive and great with communication. He was so friendly and we received an abundance of information about things to do in the local area (I read the book on the shelf by E.V Sale about Whangaroa by the way and loved it so I’ll have to purchase it from here). Though we’d love to selfishly keep it a secret so we can ensure we are able to book again in the future, we are more than happy to recommend Sophia’s Rest as a fantastic Air B&B.
