We loved this location. It really is special and unique with a direct path to a rugged coastline from the farm. The cottage has a very special ambience reflected in treasures from a past era enhanced by really thoughtful modern touches and a little luxury from the host Rose. Our bed was super soft and cosy with lovely linen. Visiting Wairoa township, the museum, gallery and walkway were well worth while and the cafe as recommended by Rose was good too. The Morere hot pools are a must do and we loved the drive to Mahia Peninsula. Our three nights were fantastic at this cottage.
