Location is awesome - right in between Omaha, Matakana, and Tauwharanui Regional Park. Pippa has a lovely homely setup with most the essentials for a short stay. We got to hang out with some donkeys and miniature horses. This would have to be one of the closest places you could stay to Tauwharanui. The house is well heated with a heat pump so a winter stay is no problem. Everything was as described and Pippas instructions were easy to follow. We'll be sure to come back - in summer next time so we can enjoy the beaches!
