This place was just what we needed to relax for a couple of days and explore the area. Dave and Annette were super friendly people - helpful and responsive while also respecting our space. They have three cute cats which appeared every now and then (an added bonus). The beds were comfortable and everything was clean. Coffee, tea and a little milk supplied. I was happy to see proper bottles of shampoo, conditioner and shower gel in the bathroom instead of the wasteful plastic mini samples you often find in Airbnbs (it's the little things). The highlight of our stay were the walks around Cooke's Beach. The area is more peaceful and untouched than the neighbouring Whitiaki. We walked the legs off ourselves while admiring the stunning scenery. Lonely Bay was our favourite spot.
