My brother and a friend had a wonderful stay at Deborahs place 2 minutes walk from the surf at Whale Bay, Raglan.
We were well looked after with organic coconut yoghurt, local sour dough bread, fresh organic eggs and organic milk and butter
She has a quirky well loved and equipped space below her house set among semi tropical plants, trees and lots of garden ceramics and sculptures.
Deborah is very friendly and warm and if her mate Terry is around he'll give some top tips on which surf break is working for the conditions
