We really enjoyed our stay here, the location has perfect views looking over the bay to Wellington, we had both rainy & perfect sunny views. We met Peter who was very friendly & accommodating. My partner was very happy to use the wood fireplace, kept the house nice and toasty before bed, there is a heater & electric blanket provided, we didn't need to use either :). Its quite spacious, with plenty of windows to see the views, & a deck on the front also. Its only about 20mins or so to Wellington without traffic, and also 5mins drive away is Petone which we enjoyed stopping in for dinner along their street of Restaurants on our way back from Wellington.
There are quite a few steps walking down to the cabin just be aware if you have trouble with steps, & its quite a snug road leading up the hill, we were worried if there was any oncoming cars but we were lucky it was pretty quiet whenever we were driving up and down :).
Really enjoyed our stay, would stay again & recommend if you don't want to stay in the hustle & bustle of Wellington.
Thanks Haiyang & Peter.
