Christine and Ian’s lovely place was everything we could have asked for and more. The accommodation was immaculately presented, the bedrooms were spacious, the kitchen was well appointed, and the wonderful Hawkes Bay sun was enjoyed thoroughly on the generous deck (with bbq).
The location is a short drive away from Napier town, but also conveniently located for highway access to the wineries around the region. Most of all, it allowed us to feel like we enjoyed our own semi rural paradise despite its proximity to the city.
Our hosts were the epitome hospitality, had an extensive knowledge of the area, and offered plenty of recommendations that helped us make the most of our visit to the region. They live in the main house (though the separation is excellent), and were very respectful of our privacy, allowing us to enjoy the place and the lawn on the guest side of the property.
We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful and relaxing retreat; one of the best places we have stayed at on Air BnB! Would certainly book again if (when) we return to Napier!
A huge thank you to Christine and Ian!
