Studio was spotless, great shower and selection of teas, coffees. Bed very comfortable. Sliding door from living room very handy when packing up the car, just a stride away. Whangarei Basin/town centre a pleasant walk away, and enjoyed the circular Hatea Loop and bridges. Very handy for exploring Whangarei Heads, and we walked Urquharts via Busby Head to Smugglers Bay. Some tracks and attractions closed due to Cyclone Gabrielle and heavy rains, but still plenty to do. Whangarei Falls - we can see why they are popular with photographers, views from all angles.
