The pictures do not do this place justice. It is stunning, spotless, quiet, and comfortable. Michele and Vicki (and Ollie and Smokey) were so, so kind and hospitable - including flexible with our late arrival and extended booking - not to mention such funny folks! We are lucky to have found this place and meet/chat with these wonderful humans. It was a spacious and modern retreat with an incredible view of Mt Taranaki. Open concept living/kitchen area, private bedroom (comfiest bed ever), separate toilet and shower rooms. Games, magazines, books, and food/drink available. Short drive to Egmont NP with great hikes - Dawson Falls was beautiful. Good food in Stratford - highly suggest Colonel Malone’s and the Bakery Co. We arrived past dark and the clear instructions given by the hosts were extremely helpful for finding the BnB as there aren’t a lot of street lights. Definitely recommend and will be staying again!
