I very much enjoyed my stay in the Magnolia Room - a beautifully fragrant and airy house. Sara-Ann was a wonderfully kind and welcoming host and such fun to chat with – I learnt much about local life and also some expert tips on preserving fruits! Great breakfast too. This is a very convenient base for exploring the Karangahake Gorge and Waihi beaches and also a gateway to Coramandel. Highly recommended.
