Diane's cottage by the stream is a true home away from home - a comfortable, large, beautifully appointed suburban home set in a gorgeous garden which crosses a gentle stream at the entrance. Diane has thought of everything and the kitchen is especially well stocked with quality products for breakfast and more - including fresh eggs, cooking oil, rice and all else to get started. The house is a short walk to good local shops and restaurants and buses. Diane herself is a warm and engaging host, truly helpful. Her offering is one of the finest we have encountered in New Zealand, and that's saying a lot. Peter
