Staying in Lynnie's home is an immensely enjoyable, unique experience. Unlike all other Air B&B's I've stayed in around New Zealand, I will remember my two nights as a bohemian dream, away from the usual. A particular delight for me was the eclectic decor; woven rugs, carved furniture, chandeliers, candlesticks object d'art and all enhanced by rich fabrics and fresh cut flowers. Most of all were the animals, Goosie, Tye the dog and fifteen chickens in and around the property, laying eggs right beneath my window to provide delicious breakfasts. Although one might feel the place could do with a good clean in places, the bedding is crisp, white and freshly laundered. Lynnie is an extremely generous and engaging host with a vast knowledge of the arts and a fascinating person to talk to. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.
