Brenda and Neil were fantastic hosts, all the thoughtful touches such as fresh eggs from their chickens, homemade kiwi jam, their own apples and fresh Madeleine cakes! Their grapes were delicious too.
The space itself is beautiful and we couldn't have found a better way to start our long trip in NZ. It's perfect driving distance to a lot of the attractions of the Northland.
On the weekend, the winery and brewery are open until 6pm if you fancy a nice cold beer.
One of our highlights was the blueberry farm a couple of kilometres down the main road which does fresh blueberry ice-cream from Nov till April.
Brenda and Neil had some great recommendations on local places, we loved visiting the bays they suggested and had them pretty much to ourselves.
The house is perfect for unwinding in the evening, with your own deck and BBQ. There's so much wildlife in their garden, we sat out there for hours.
Will definitely stay again if and when we get a chance to come back to NZ
