Warren welcomed us after a long drive to Wellington and showed us the house and our space. We had a massive comfy bed, closet, great Wifi (good for family Christmas calls!) and our own very nice bathroom adjacent. Ann and Warren were lovely hosts, letting us use the washing machine, kitchen and supplying nearly unlimited avocados and kiwis from family orchards. They were always up for chat over breakfast or an evening cuppa and were so gracious in accommodating us even when they were busy setting up a trip for Christmas. Johnsonville is a little bit outside of Wellington, but that was actually quite nice. The train runs everyday about every half-hour and a day ticket with unlimited travel Zones 1-3 runs 10NZD per person. There are also buses - Warren will get you the inside scoop if you need more info!
