Staying in Jill and Jack's cottage was a wonderful experience. The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped, especially perfect for a longer stay. The setting of the cottage offers the opportunity to see and hear many native birds, and it's also a short hop to lovely Makara Beach. This is an ideal spot for travelers who want to relax and enjoy fresh air and nature. (If you really want to be immersed in the bustle of the city, this probably isn't the right spot for you!) Jill and Jack are fantastic, caring, helpful - but not at all obtrusive - hosts.
