Had a great stay in Napier at Bellbird Studio. Debbie was a very thoughtful host and communicated so well with us, that we felt right at home when we arrived, even though we did not meet her until the following day. the studio is situated on the hill at the top of Napier and if you enjoy a good, slightly challenging walk it is easy to explore the Bluff lookout and around the docks area.
We had found some other places which included a small set of hotplates for cooking and this might have been a good addition, as we are not keen on microwaved dinners. However, the fridge and everything else in the kitchen was very well stocked and we managed well. Really nice place.
