We really enjoyed our stay at Fiona's home. Great place for our family, good living and dining space and we particularly enjoyed the garden, decking area and BBQ. Handy having 2 bathrooms too. Easy to walk to local cafes and shops or get the bus or drive into Auckland. Fiona was particularly helpful with local information we'd requested and was always quick to communicate. I would just mention that the house is on a main road, which didn't alter our enjoyment, but may be an issue if you wanted a particularly quiet place.
