Simon and Richard were amazing hosts for our first day in NZ they made us feel really welcome and gave us good advice on places to eat. Simon has put a lot of effort into making the guests feel special from the little note on the breakfast jar to lovely chocolates in the room and various guidebooks about NZ. We had a nice evening chatting away with the glass of wine. Thomas, one of the cats, was really friendly and we enjoyed cuddling him a lot. The house is in a good location yet very quiet street. The rooms is big and comfortable, plenty of space for the suitcase and our stuff. The house is really nicely done, the design and style is absolutely lovely. Thank you so much for such a great first day in NZ.
