Carol's place is really ideal in so many respects. Firstly, Carol is a wonderful, warm, and personable host who was a joy to interact with and who actively ensured that I had everything I could possibly need, and even provided me with some delicious homemade feijoa salad (in addition to the numerous feijoas from the yard). The room has a very comfy feeling, there is a whole kitchen and living area downstairs that can be used (the downstairs is a sort of semi-separate area from the rest of the house, with separate entrance as well), it is a very nice and quiet location just adjoining the nearby Wither Hills (including a park with a popular walkway with views down into the valley below). Carol made her bicycle available to me, with which I could easily reach town and return. I recommend Carol's place very highly, I couldn't imagine a better airbnb.
