The house is five minutes drive from Paihia and set in the hills. The off street parking is great although the drive way is a little awkward to turn into. It is private and surrounded by trees. There is a good sized balcony with table and chairs and a well equiped kitchen and roomy lounge area. The guest bed was very comfortable with toilet and bathroom next door. The whole place was spotlessly clean. The only negative I found was a lack of power points in the bathroom. Yvonne was very clear with her instructions and available on the phone for any queries.
