Staying at Dave’s flat was definitely a highlight of our trip. Spacious, well- equipped, with lovely gardens, we felt quite at home. But it was the views - the fabulous views - looking over Paihai, the Bay of Islands and Russell in the distance that set this place apart. It took our breathe away each day. We didn’t want to leave! We also enjoyed meeting with Dave, to share stories and a tipple 😉. It’s the personal interactions with the hosts we meet on our travels that makes a visit extra special! Highly recommend!
