We enjoyed this very private, very clean and unobstrusively practically furnished en suite with a very comfortable bed for two nights. Helen and her family made us feel very welcome, even provided this rural quiet retreat on a very short (booking)notice. You will feel being part of the household right away - if you choose so ;) Dusty the dog will guard for your well being and Toto the cat will want to even live with you in your room. Ceck in and check out are absolutely non-complicated and very generous. It is ideal for everyone who seeks to escape the noise of nearby Napier or Havelock. Even the resident Tui sings a soothing evening song in the trees surrounding this house. Definitely recommended for a replenishing good sleep and to unwind from travelling. With a car, Napier is in easy reach.
