Absolutely amazing. From the start the communication was prompt and clear.
We had perfect weather and the view is impeccable. Even through there is a second airbnb unit and another house close by it still feels incredibly private.
Lovely touch to have chilled wine and a little cheese board on arrival, as well as breakfast (toast/jam or mueslie/yoghurt) provided.
We brought a chilly bin as knew bar fridge would be small. Packed snacks and BBQ food to suit the fact that there isn't a full kitchen. BBQ is grill only so if wanting to cook smaller things (onions/mushrooms) you may want to bring a small skillet.
Enjoyed patting Nigel the friendly goat.
Didn't get a chance to go for a ride on the mountain bike tracks, but they look awesome and we hope to return to try them out. Everything was clean and well presented. Lots of National Geographics to read. Pretty much no internet for 2 degrees, some internet with spark...but was enjoyable to be off phones/TV for the weekend.
Local(ish) attractions we enjoyed: Southward car museum, Nga Manu nature reserve, Los Locos Mexican Cantina for dinner/margarita followed by a walk on lovely Waikanae beach with stunning view of Kapiti Island.
5 stars - highly recommended
