What a wonderful home!!! Over and above our expectations. A grand and stately home in immaculate condition and only minutes away from the ferry. A total delight. We loved sitting out on the deck and watching the world and the many boats go past...was an easy stroll down to the ferry and within minutes we were transported to downtown Auckland and the hustle and bustle. Such a comfortable place to stay and obviously such a well loved home - loved the old photo's on the wall, showing us how the house evolved. A total pleasure and an honour to stay there. Devonport itself is a joy with every possible thing you could want within a gentle amble away. Completely fell in love with the house and the area and we will be back!!! Oh and lovely touches -little heart chocolates to greet us! Along with basic amenities. Faultless.
