We had the most delightful stay at Mike & Isobel's house. The house was beautiful, and there was the most wonderful view from the balcony. Anything we could've possibly wanted from an Airbnb stay was provided for us; A wonderful breakfast including homegrown fruits, bicycles to use to explore the area, being made to feel welcome to use the living room & kitchen if we wanted, refreshments on arrival, and a fountain of knowledge for the area. And Mike (Isobel was away so we didn't get to meet her) was a wonderful host and we thoroughly enjoyed his company and hospitality. Havelock North is a great place to base yourself if you're looking to explore the Hawkes Bay region... Handy to Hastings, Napier and all the vineyards, and Havelock North itself is a lovely town. I can't imagine it to be possible to not enjoy your stay at Mike & Isobel's house! Thank you Mike! :-)
