Definitely a rural cottage and we were delighted with the well cared for animals over the fence. Decor a little on the tired side but overall what we had expected.....some brighter wall art wouldn't go astray.
The internet connection was poor which in this case was not a bad thing as trying to have a few days away from work.
Great location with easy access to the city and beyond although do not go down Egmont Road to the supermarket...take Smart Road instead. For a small city we could not understand why SH3 should be in gridlock...at least it was late afternoon.
Overall enjoyed our stay and a few relaxing days. Thanks Steve for the fresh milk and coming to my rescue with the wire cutters.
