Sheryl was such a great host and offered us many tips for sight seeing around the area. Star gazing right from her deck and hot water beach were two of our most favorite memories from our entire New Zealand trip. The location of the house is perfect for exploring cathedral cove, HWB, Hahei beach and the area in general. Be sure that almost everything in the area closes early and restaurants all take last orders by 8:30 pm so plan ahead! Highly recommend the Eggcentric Cafe and the local pub for food.
