Ian and Bev are wonderful hosts. You have the bottom level of their home with own access. We stayed for one night on the way through to Gisborne travelling with 2 children from Auckland. Was the perfect pit stop. Pizzas from the general store are delicious and the harbour is in front of the property with the surf beach at the back. We left the window open in our room so we could go to sleep with the sound of the waves crashing. Kitchenette is great with plunger coffee, yoghurt, crumpets and homemade marmalade and muesli for breakfast. Perfect stay highly recommend.
