Everything was great, Yarn is such a good man, we had a very nice chat with him, but unfortunately we didn't meet Sharon. We left very early in the morning and he was already up to say goodbye and making sure we had a pleasant stay. The room and the place in general are lovely, fully furnished and super clean and tidy. Paihia is very close, three minutes by car and also the car ferry to Russell. We'll definitely go back for our next trip to NZ!
