Carol and Kerry are the perfect hosts in every way. Their home really is a ‘home from home’ and you are immediately made to feel welcome and comfortable. They are very relaxed and easy-going; we really enjoyed chatting to them and thoroughly enjoyed their company. Their home is spacious and our bed was very comfy. Breakfast was amazing - Carol stews local organic fruits such as apricots, apples and plums to add to cereal with yogurt and she makes the most delicious scrambled eggs on toast! Matakana, the nearest town, is lovely and has a vibrant Saturday market as well as great cafes. The Sawmill Brewery, just outside Matakana, is well worth a visit and they serve great food. We loved the Brick Bay Sculpture Park too and enjoyed snorkelling at the marine reserve near Goat Island. You’d be disappointed if you only booked for a night - we stayed for 5!
We would give 6 stars if we could! Thank you Carol and Kerry.
