We had such a special stay with Kerryl & Tom, our only wish is that we had more time to spend at their lovely spot and that we got to hang out with them longer! Their lovely home is a short drive outside the city of Auckland and was the perfect point for us to stay for an easier takeoff in the morning to head to Cambridge area for Hobbinton tour. Upon pulling up, we were graciously met by Kerryl & Tom, who instantly made us feel so welcome and right at home. As if we were relatives coming for a stay in their home. We got a tour of the property, met all their animals, chatted about their sustainable living, and were given many recommendations for activities to enjoy locally. They even invited us over to watch the rugby game that evening but we arrived home too late. They even provide breakfast with farm fresh eggs for your convenience in the morning, which was so helpful for these busy travelers! This was such a memorable stay and really kicked off our trip right. Hope to be back!
