Polly and Geoff are incredible. They are very accomodating and give you a very warm feeling of Whanau. "Protea Cottage" is like a tropical holiday home surrounded by lush green vegetation. The place was very clean, modern, had everything we needed to feel at home, and was an easy drive to all the sites we wanted to see. Also close to a 4 square supermarket which was handy, along with a few restaurants and cafes. We would highly recommend this wonderful cottage.
