Dianne was a very nice host, very kind, generous and ready to help. We had very good communication with her and she left plenty of information in the house for activities and things to see/do in Gisborne.
The house itself is an older home but it was bigger than we expected with a nice deck and wee garden out front, fully fenced so great for kids. It could be cleaner but everything you may need is there. Also a big array of books to read in the cosy lounge !
The location of the house puts it in easy reach of places to see and visit.
There was strong and faultless wifi, making it easy for us to work during our week.
