We absolutely LOVED our stay. The place has soul, and character and we loved hearing about its history from Leone who told us how her mum had cared for the house before her. It was an honour to stay in such a special place. It's hard to find an AirBnB that is not generic, boring and soulless. This place was the opposite, its rustic - just as we like it, full of love and character. There is a great big dining table we could all eat, drink and play cards around. The two bedrooms are perfectly sized and it's so quiet, we slept peacefully. We loved the original features like the venetian blind windows and the roll top bath tub. The garden is wild and beautiful - probably fun for kids! We were able to walk to Karaka Bay Beach which is beautiful and lined with gorgeous houses. Leone was the ultimate host, she made us feel so at home and we had some great connections over our Shetland heritage. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants an authentic NZ bach experience. Thanks Leone.
