Mumfords was an incredible introduction to New Zealand! Fran and Nicky were very responsive and provided in depth directions to their home. They urged us to explore the property and even provided us with duck eggs and toast for breakfast. We found the home and surrounding area easily exceeded our expectations. The gardens were exceptional and even rivaled Christchurch's botanical gardens. After taking a stroll down to the shoreline, we knew this was a unique experience. Thank you Fran and Nicky. Hopefully we will come back for another stay!
