Brooke and Tim really do give you a five star experience at their space! They have thought of every detail to make your stay excellent. Board games, essential oils, cold flannels, robes for the spa, paper bags to help yourself to the home grown fruit, assortment of tea, adult coloring in and outdoor chess to name a few bonus’s. They are fantastic hosts (including fluffy the friendly cat who lives in the cottage). The food was delicious and we loved the small touches like the fire pit to really help us relax and enjoy the place. Crazy that you can be less than an hour away from Auckland, and still feel like you’re on holiday. Highly recommend this beautiful escape!
