We stayed in Jill's place for our first 3 nights in NZ. We are a family of four, and this spot could not have been more perfect. There's a lovely backyard, the kitchen/living space opens directly on to an outdoor patio, so you can enjoy your coffee outside. A swing for the kids. Very comfortable beds, a beautiful living space. Very close to a sweet little downtown, with waterfront, shops, restaurants, and a phenomenal library. And Jill was extremely kind and helpful with all. We would highly recommend this spot.
