Hello Suzanne,
I cannot begin to express my gratitude at your sharing the special place that you have created over the decades. After our visit to Auckland arriving at your sanctuary bled off all the city energy and was a complete reversal and the relaxation began. You almost do not have to leave your property to get a complete New Zealand experience. Taking walks around the lake, watching your herd of dear, having the stag visit us was a new life experience. Polly, your dog stole my heart. Playing rugby with her after a long day in the wilderness was just a joy. Thank you for being so knowledgeable of and connected to the community. The fly fishing guide and private chef on Valentine's Day were wonderful people and reflected your nature. This was not like a B&B nor a hotel but it felt like you were sharing your home. I really hope and plan to return someday for even a longer visit.
Thank you, thank you, thank you
Sincerely
Grant
Like a fine wine, Punatapu, reveals its quality and charm in layers, providing richer rewards and delights the further one moves through it. After breathing in Punatapu's delightful fresh air and visually basking in the rich colors of wild flowers one realizes it is a " Secret Garden !" Greeted and cared for with loving kindness by Sue and Polly you will have a five star vacation experience! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
And speaking of stars....they were spectacular! It is the hidden depths that make this a rich and satisfying experience, one to savour again and again. Thank you
