Bernie and Ann feel like old friends the minute you meet them and join them for a chat in the living room of their home. We were especially lucky enough to arrive only 2 days after their mare gave birth to a foal and what a treat to get to see them together in the pen! Their home is comfortable and easy to relax in. Ann had great tips for where to eat and took really good care of us for breakfast with our finicky dietary restrictions. Incredibly warm and generous hosts and a great experience if you want to get to know some true locals if you’re traveling to New Zealand!
