Lydia was a wonderfully thoughtful host. Great communication before and during. The home's location could not be better – it's within walking distance to the Redwoods, which is a must-visit while in NZ. One thing that's worth mentioning is that this guest suite is attached to the main home where the hosts live. Although it's fully self-contained, we could hear the hosts moving about and I'd assume they could hear us, too. Regardless, we greatly enjoyed our stay in this cozy space.
