Mike and Linda are exceptional hosts and very responsive and flexible with all that we asked. The location is tranquil and only 15 minutes drive to New Plymouth. The bedrooms are in a row upstairs in the building, and therefore, there needed to be a bit of consideration from everyone who stayed as the walls are thin. The main lounge area is directly outside the bedrooms upstairs, which was great for teenagers. The games room was a huge hit by all concerned with table tennis, pool, and table football games happening consistently. All in all, if you want a quiet place with great hosts near to walking tracks, this is the place for you. Thank you, Linda and Mike, for an enjoyable stay and for being such great hosts.
