These two are the absolute greatests hosts. I was expecting another place to just do my thing and I got these two who invited me to spend time with them on the deck, eat, sing and drink. Absolutely memorable. The apartment was everything I needed. A place to cook, fridge, a bedroom, a living room and a bathroom. There is a deck as a part of the unit where you can sit and enjoy the view of the river or the horses grazing along the river bank in the neighboring property. Clive is a small, quiet town. There are few restaurants (one right at the end of the driveway), but you'll have to make sure you know when they are open because the hours are a bit abnormal. Both Hasting and Napier are about a 40 minute to 1 hour bike ride. I think about 15 minutes by car. Napier is a beautiful city with great walking scenery. The hours I found, again, to be a little strange so make sure you know when things are open before you go exploring. All in all, this was a wonderful stay and you get a good feel for what I assume is the majority of New Zealand. Quiet, peaceful neighborhoods with a lot of farming and sense of community. This is a great place to stay. The hosts are amazing, welcoming, warm, kind and make you feel at home. Susan goes out of her way to extend her hospitality. There is nothing lacking here. I highly recommend this stay.
