Helen and Jack are great hosts! They are warm and welcoming, bringing fresh fresh breakfast every morning (Helen bakes great muffins too!) and helping with our travels. Jack even checked flight arrival details and reminded me to pick up my sister, whose flight arrived much earlier! The house is new and spacious, the garden astounding with pretty plants, swimming pool and hot spa. The listed pictures don't do it justice! It takes around 25min to get to city center by train (walking included), and you can also walk up Mt Wellington for a great view of Auckland. I would highly recommend staying here! Thank you Helen and Jack!
