Penny and her husband have such a lovely place to stay accompanied by great hospitality. When we arrived they offered us a cup of tea, homemade ginger bread and great conversation. In the morning she prepared us a lovely breakfast. The house is cozy with a beautiful view of the bay. The room has a separate entry so you can come and go without disturbing them. It is a short walk to the beach and small town and a 30 minute drive to downtown Wellington. We felt very welcomed and at home. We would highly recommend this place to anyone traveling to Lower Hutt or Wellington. Such a peaceful getaway!
