The house and the rented room is very pleasant and spacious for guests. The kitchen has excellent equipment up to the first supply of milk and toast for the first breakfast. The connection to Auckland City is possible by bus and suburban train every half hour, duration about 50 min. Lynda is a fantastic hostess who is always available for questions, tips and exchange about the country and its people. An absolutely recommendable place who likes it a bit away from the city bustle of Auckland.
