We moved from the US to Wellington. After staying here, we didn't want to leave...it is beautiful. The living room faces the harbour. The view is incredible. We walked to a nature reserve several times to explore, also beautiful. Be sure to check out the trail to the water fall. Kmart, Pak n save, countdown are close, my sons walked there. the Queensgate Shopping Centre is about 5-10 minutes away.
Great place. We wanted to stay longer!
