If you're after decent, basic accommodation that's clean and tidy and at a very affordable budget, this is for you. The lovely owners are warmly attentive but give you your space, too. The faded glory of this old mansion gives you a peep at yesteryear New Zealand, and it's very relaxing and restorative to wander its tree-filled grounds. The cruisy check-out time is also a bonus. It's wonderful to know your stay here is helping the owners realise their worthy vision of one day providing community accommodation for people in need.
