We arrived (very) late Friday night – Paula was super-accomodating and lightning fast to respond to any questions. Parking was easy, the fireplace was set and we quickly made ourselves at home with a book and hot drink in front of the fire. There's some good coffee just around the corner (5 min walk), and if you're up for an adventure we can highly recommend the ferry across to Lyttleton and Arbour (the best pizza we've had outside Italy) and Super (Māori-Japanese fusion). The kitchen was well-equipped, the pantry well-stocked, and there's a Four Square just down the road. If you're looking for some R&R, this is the place to go. Stay for as long as you can!
