This was a very unique and peaceful place to stay for three nights. The views were incredible - you are staying at the top of the highest hill in the area looking down at miles of farm land, beach and sea. I could have sat there on the deck all day. All amenities i could think of were available - I cooked all our meals here in the well equipped kitchen (sharp knives even). It is a great place from which to explore the Kauri forest, and there is miles of beach and hikes nearby. It was wonderful for our family of 5 but my wife and i also imagined returning for a couple's getaway.
