My wife and I have been staying in New Zealand for about one month, staying at different hotels, motels and other b&b. I would say the 8 days' stay at Helen and Jack's home was the most comfortable and pleasant experience so far. We really enjoy the homely atmosphere. Thanks for Helen's baking and Jack's invaluable advice on surrounding suburbs and places of interest. The unit is clean and quiet. So quiet that we overslept every morning. The kitchen is fully equipped. The dish washer is a bonus. Cupboard shelves are filled with breakfast choices more than we need. It's too cold to swim in the pool during our stay but it's perfect to enjoy the outdoor hot spa. Helen and Jack truly treat their guests with heart and sincerity. When comparing with our other stays, one can easily feel that Helen and Jack are hosting with their guests' needs as top priority.
