Our stay at Jan's place was fantastic, our 3 generations including a young toddler really enjoyed the great facilities with lots of toys, kid's books and puzzles, and play equipment available. We appreciated the thoughtful pack of fridge and pantry goods and wine that greeted us on arrival. Communication was excellent and prompt. The property has wonderful mountain/forest views and the location was great with everything available in Lower Hutt and still only a short drive or train ride to the city and other attractions.
