For two "oldies" on leave, "Ocean View" is a quiet retreat at one end of a private home overlooking the ocean on the outskirts of Leigh. Easy travelling distance by car from Auckland airport. Bedroom, dining/living room,(combined) and bathroom very well appointed: clean, comfortable, modern. It does not have a full kitchen but more than adequate for preparing light meals. Helen provided more than the usual basics for "breaky" plus a selection of fresh fruit. We enjoyed the visits from "Rocky" their terrier who was no problem at all. Both Helen and Geoff were on hand when needed but did not intrude. We enjoyed the harbour, the swim at a lovely beach nearby and trips to the wineries and markets, all at a very leisurely pace. Great place to rest and unwind. Thanks Helen and Geoff
