We stayed 2 nights in Karen’s piece of paradise. This is a good old fashioned Kiwi batch ,simple, nothing fancy, very clean and was as the photographs showed. The property was slightly elevated and right in front of the water (fully fenced ) and whilst the no exit road ran between the property and the water it was not a nuisance. Cars had to travel slowly. If anything it added to the experience with people waving and sharing greetings as they passed. Sitting on the deck in the evenings was a highlight watching boats come and go and lots of evening sun and super sunsets.
There are a variety of lovely walks very close by and swimming options both in the bay or 5minutes away at Ocean beach. We hope to return for a longer stay sometime soon.
