Eden Homestay is an oasis of calm and wonderfully peaceful and restful. For us it was really lovely to feel taken care of in the midst of busyness. Ngaire even made gluten free meusli, which was delicious. Thank you Ngaire for all your care and generosity.
This is a special place. Everything seems to have been thought of in this incredibly well appointed ‘home away from home’. Lots of thoughtful things, interesting crafty touches in every room, nice big fridge ready stocked with breakfast foods, books, games, jigsaw puzzles..so often I’d say ‘there’s even a...’ Big wardrobe & plenty of drawers. And lots of pillows! Ngaire & Tony went our of their way to help us plug in our Nissan Leaf (electric car) to recharge and were wonderfully helpful, interesting to talk with and also ensured we had lots of privacy. Ideal hosts : - )
Fiarfield is a lovely part of the Hutt valley. The walks nearby along the Waiwhetu stream are a treat, with ducks and dog walkers. There is a regular bus service just around the corner too, this will take you to the (Waterloo) railway station, Lower Hutt and to Petone. The California garden centre, gift shop and cafe are a short walk from here as is the Remakery - a wonderful community hub and Koha cafe.
Ngaire & Tony’s place goes above and beyond my idea of airbnb, in everything there’s a warm hearted kindness and a feeling of being cared for. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! I look forward to coming back for another visit : - )
