Dardie's place was fantastic for me to stay in for several days. It is ideal for one person or two. Awesome location, lovely peaceful area, beautiful garden in front of the cottage, and Dardie was an experienced, warm and super supportive host. I highly recommend her place for guests. Wonderful restaurants nearby, close to the freeway for easy access to north and south and west Auckland. Lovely neighbourhood, no noise disturbance and friendly cat to greet new guests.
