We highly recommend staying here. We stayed in the summer and loved the covered walkways between rooms. The porch is also covered so we sat together outside when it was raining. Or in in the kitchen. The view is wonderful of the ocean with so many beautiful birds. It is private and really close so we could walk to town. Raglan has fabulous restaurants and we recommend Wyld . She made our stay very welcoming with fresh flowers and a wondeful booklet suggesting things to do. Cheers
