Kathy's house is in a very scenic, quite beautiful location. The view from this place is simply breathtaking, over looking at some of the most unpopulated ocean I have ever set my eyes on in any of my travels. It's one of those places where the pictures do not do it justice. The house is well appointed for a comfortable stay in a secluded setting. It's an easy trip down to Piha beech and the cafe/shop and we all had a fabulous few days there. Kathy is a great host and was very welcoming and charming.
