I came down from Hamilton as a weekend get away and it was so serene. Di and Kit were fast to respond to my last minute request. When I entered the cottage, I immediately noticed the beautiful smell of flowers. Di made home made chocolate chip cookies which made me feel at home. The space was perfect for me to have some quiet time of reflection and walk around Kawhia. I feel my batteries were recharged and I’m so happy I stayed here. I would definitely come again and recommend this stay to anyone wanting a moment of respite.
The fields across the way are dreamy with sheep dotted on the hills and you can see the harbor area and the town. Very nice vantage point. I recommend eating at the pub in town and try their John Dory Burger, and the Kumera fries- friendly service and good sized portions.
