Lovely stay! We had a fantastic time. Everything you need, including milk, tea coffee, toaster, fridge, close to the beach, clean and tidy. Great price, great host. Our last minute booking wasn't an issue. Vivienne let us keep to ourselves, which suits us. But she was friendly enough that I wouldn't have felt uncomfortable asking her Qs. Only qualm was it was super hot, and we ended up buying our own cheap little fan from the warehouse, as the air cooler didn't make it cool enough for us. We personally like to sleep with the room quite cool in the summer heat. Aside from that, we can't fault our stay. Would definitely recommend! Thanks for the wonderful time in Taranaki!
