A very cosy comfortable place to stay. Cooking facilities were minimal; but there are plenty of places to eat within a short walking distance. We found a very nice Thai restaurant in a lovely location. Whitianga is a very popular holiday destination with beautiful scenery. Unfortunately for us Cyclone Gabriel had closed the main road in, but the alternative was very scenic; and also closed Cathedral Cove. Ian & Bronnie were wonderfully friendly and helpful hosts. Definitely recommend their place.
