Mike and Roz were excellent hosts. They were accommodating and always keen to make themselves available to us whilst we stayed with them. We had some issues with lost luggage on the trip from Europe to New Zealand and Mike and Roz were great - offering their address to the airline so our lost luggage could be delivered and generally going out of their way to help us overcome a possibly stressful situation.

The accommodation itself was fantastic. Filled, as the pictures show, with a variety of curio items. Whilst the pictures in the listing might make you think that the accommodation is a little small, don't be fooled - it is absolutely huge and could easily accommodate 4+ people. Whilst we were staying in house we found that we had ample space to stretch out and relax. The washing machine was also a great feature as was the inclusion of some breakfast items in the house.

The location overlooking Gisborne was stunning. A short 10-15 minute walk up the hill at the back of the house was rewarded with an amazing view of the entire city. A fantastic way to watch the sun set!

We loved staying with Mike and Roz, they were friendly, full of helpful advice and tips to make the most out of our time in the Gisborne area and genuinely keen to ensure we had a pleasant stay. I'm happy to say that our stay was more than pleasant, it was fantastic!
