We had a wonderful Easter break at Gary's place. It's a beautifully designed and furnished modern house set in a peaceful rural location - complete with Tui - the happiest dog you'll meet! We used the house as a base for exploring the Taranaki coast's surf breaks, and its location was perfect for this. We particularly enjoyed Back Beach which is only 10 minutes drive away and was pumping over Easter! Gary was great to deal with, super friendly and is a wealth of information on the surrounding area. Highly recommended!
