We had a fantastic stay at Anne's studio. Although Anne wasn't there to greet us upon our arrival, she was in constant communication with us and provided detailed instructions on how to find the house and access the studio. The studio itself is really nicely furnished and well stocked with toiletries, coffee, tea and croissants (which we didn't realise were in the freezer in case you're wondering!). It's also very private and secluded from the main house, although we did get to meet Anne briefly one evening which was very nice.

The location of the studio is perfect. It's within walking distance of the main activity centres along Ponsonby Rd and a reasonably close walk to the city centre as well, but it's far removed from busy areas so it's nice and quiet and peaceful. We would gladly stay again on our next trip to Auckland.
