We arrived at Julia's a little late from our trip to Waitomo, and communication was excellent as she messaged us and told us how to get inside etc. We were surprised by how beautiful her place was, and touched by the personalised note and bottle of wine (we are on our honeymoon!). Her space is attached to the main home, but is like a separate home on its own - rather spacious, and beautifully decorated. She had thought of all the necessities - breakfast food, coffee/milk, shampoo etc. We met Julia as we were walking outside to grab dinner and she greeted us with a big warm hug! She made us feel so welcome. We were sad we were only at her place for just one day - we saw Mt Taranaki in all its glory as we drove out towards Wellington. I would definitely stay at Julia's again should I return to New Plymouth. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
