George's house was a secluded sanctuary of PEACE that my aunt and I had the pleasure of staying at while on vacation in New Zealand from the United States. George was easy to get in touch with but ensued that our privacy was of the highest concern. He provided plenty of amenities such as FREE coffee and use of the kitchen. The hot tub was in impeccable order and was simple to use and ENJOY easily. The hammock out back was my favored spot to mediate and journal in the morning. I also enjoyed practicing YOGA on his glass deck w a view that left me breathless... it was easy to concentrate on my breath. Just being there allowed me the rest & RELAXATION needed to really unwind and enjoy myself. I could go on and on about all the great little touches that made our stay so special but really the only way to know just how great it was is to GO and enjoy it for yourself.
