The house is a lovely stand-alone dwelling with cheerful hosts. It is situated down a very long, somewhat steep and tricky driveway. The hosts provide a very good description and video of how to locate their property. Your room is on the ground/basement floor beside the garage with internal access to the basement staircase (one door) and separate external sliding doors giving access to 2-car concrete pad outside.
Downstairs there is a large fridge, very accessible in the garage, to store milk chill water or any other foodstuffs you need to chill. However you can only heatup food in the family's microwave upstairs before a certain time which may not suit everyone. We were caught out with an unexpected visit to Auckland Hospital and didnt eat dinner on our first night because we were late back.
It is a peaceful location in general. The noise from upstairs can be a bother, at times, if you are trying to rest (if there are loud excited greetings or movement around mealtimes/supper upstairs). We did notice the garage door can wake you around 7am too.
Be aware that you have to walk upstairs into an openplan lounge-dining area, keeping next to the main entance to house (next to stairway) and right across from exiting stairway you will find your private bathroom with toilet and shower.
Overall it was nice and good value.
