If you are looking for a quaint, quiet getaway in the country - Southwind is the place for you! We loved our 2 night in Te Arai and only regret not staying another 2 nights! Glenys and Paul were perfect hosts right from the start and made us feel so welcome. We enjoyed the gardens, hot tub, and lounging by the fire at night. We felt so spoilt with hotel-quality sheets, welcome chocolates, and homemade biscuits and granola. We explored during the day with visits to the regional park and Mangawahai Heads. Hoping we can visit again soon!
