Carol and Brian were wonderful hosts! My boyfriend and I spent Labour weekend at their place. We parked right in front of their house and their driveway is big enough to fit a lot of cars at the same time. It wasn't only the two of them who greeted us at the door but Oscar, their dog was there as well which was a big plus for me. I just loved the room that we stayed in. The bed was cozy and comfortable and after a long day of doing a lot of strenuous activities, the bed in our room was the only place I wanted to be in. We also tried their spa after spending the entire day in Mt. Taranaki and it was the best thing ever. During our entire stay, we got to know a little bit of Carol and Brian and their family. They always made sure we were fine. They even invited us to a bbq with them! It felt really nice to unwind with such nice people. They reminded me of home. We would definitely go back and book a room with them when we visit New Plymouth again.
