Te Whare Iti is a pleasure every time we stay. It is such a comfortable spot to relax, try to identify the bird calls, watch the stars, and spend time at windy and wild Makara Beach. It's equally easy to hop into town to sightsee or dine, knowing you will be going back home to a quiet and calm cottage to unwind. I can't recommend this cottage, or the generous hosts Jill and Jack, highly enough.
