This was the most incredibly immaculate self contained house which Russell had clearly built with care, skill, thought and love. We were almost scared by how clean and tidy it was that we might not be able to leave it in the state in which we found it! Seriously though, it had everything that we could possibly want - including some chickens and farm animals not too far away which our small grandson found charming. Russell was very helpful and gave us good advice about where to eat in Foxton Beach (Simply Balmy) which turned out to be an inspired choice. He was nearby if we had needed help (we didn't) but in no way intrusive
