Five starts is not really enough to rate Emily's place. Should be way more than that. The place looks brand new, has perfect plan and great views. Private from the main house surrounded by various trees and plants.
Inside everything was thought through, every little detail, simply amazing. Anything you wanted was there and not like in some accommodations where hosts seem to dump all unwanted utensils etc, here everything is provided for you and is in top condition.
We felt like at home, really sorry to leave, hope we can return one day! Richmond is a great place, Emily's house is not far from Queen St, you could walk or a very short drive away. Very clean town and plenty of restaurants and shops. So much to do around Richmon as well, everything feels like only a short drive away.
Great spot to include in your holiday plans, absolutely recommended. Thanks Emily for having us then, it was perfect after Abel Tasman :)
