This felt like a real kiwi bach. Very casual and relaxed. Lots of room. Emma kindly gave us early access as our plans had changed due to Cyclone Gabrielle. We Great view across the hills. There is an excellent bus service into Wellington CBD (take cash) and a handful of local restaurants, supermarket and other shops 5 minutes walk from the house. We walked down to Island Bay and had a lovely walk around the bay. This location made us feel like locals and showed us a whole new side of Wellington.
