What a stunning and unique find this was! A luxurious caravan on 4 hectares, with chickens, goats, sheep, horses, and emus. An absolutely stunning location with gorgeous views, all amenities, and a spotless and divine spa pool under a banana palm. There was even an outdoor bathtub and shower if prefered to the indoor shower - although I didn't use those because this Kiwi summer is, well, not summer!
Absolute rural New Zealand (the morning I left I had to stop for a herd of cows crossing the road!) - yet only 10 mins from the Auckland motorway, and 12 minutes either way to Pukekohe (west) and Papakura (east). And only 237 minutes south of Auckland International Airport. I simply cannot recommend this place highly enough - truly wonderful and delightful.
