Helen's house is in a great sunny location close to the beach and straight across from a kids playground which our child loved.
The living area was really comfortable and warm & their well stocked kitchen had all the equipment & glassware we needed.
This feels like a " typical kiwi family batch" full of books and games and odd bits n bobs which we liked.
As with any older house, it had its quirks, finding plugs in some rooms was a challenge, however Helen was quick to respond to our queries & concerns.
