This place is perfect for a couple to get away, unwind and forget about the busy city yet still be in Auckland. The place is warm thanks to the fire which was burning on arrival, the spa pool was amazing and the sauna even better! The pool was out of action but Poppy was incredibly accomodating with other arrangements. As a birthday treat, Poppy was even kind enough to give me a little gift which was super thoughtful! The house was spotless. Very clean and tidy. The bed was super comfortable with fresh linen, nice and warm and peaceful waking up to a private forest view. Towels were lovey and soft. Instructions were super easy to follow. We’ll definitely be back again!
