Anne met us as arranged and made us feel very welcome., showing us around and briefingf us on the house in general. A great house it is too, with a wide open view of the surrounding neighbourhood and the lovely Hauraki Gulf. Its very accurately descibed as it was all we imagined when initially reading about it. The accommodation standard is high, with heaps of space for 3 couples and, in our case, one 3 year old. Light and airy living areas opening onto a large front and a side deck are excellent as you have 2 options with differing weather conditions. Bedrooms, especially master suite, spacious and comfortable with comfortable beds.. Bathrooms upstairs great, downstairs bathroom combines with the laundry, smaller but its serviceable. Very short walk to lovely Long Bay and a short drive to the even lovelier Torbay beach. Good craft beer bar in Browns Bay nearby - Deep Creek Brewery. We would highly recommend this beautiful beach house!
