This place is a lovely spot in a semi-rural beautiful part of Auckland. This was a great location for my needs. Carol is very welcoming and the place was peaceful and comfortable. The room is a good sized room downstairs in the main house with a private contemporary bathroom opposite. The bed was very comfortable with high quality linen. Carol provides tea and coffee making and a good breakfast with lovely touches like homemade jam. It was easy to arrange with good communication and flexibility around arrival time. I would recommend Carol and John as hosts and their place and would love to stay again.
