The property was a delightful suite located on a beautiful property. The hosts, Annette and Kerry were warm and welcoming and the cookies and muffins delicious. The suite itself had everything we needed and was spotless and very comfortable. Annette and Kerry’s garden is really lovely, and provided a serene, quiet and very private setting for our stay. It was easy to get to Mt. Taraniki for Hikes and the beaches of New Plymouth for swimming. We would highly recommend this property.

Close to home
Was a great place to stay, as it turned out I knew the owners and had some excellent talks about people we knew and grew up with. Apart from that I would recommend this as one of the best, secluded places you could wish to stay close to town.

Peaceful paradise
A beautiful little gem. Only stayed the one night but will definately book again. Annette had some delicious home baked choc chip biscuits waiting for us and a personalised welcome sign. Those little touches set this place apart from your usual motel stay. Gorgeous gardens, immaculately clean, comfortable and warm.

Lovely accommodation in a slice of heaven!
We loved every second of our Easter stay, not only great accomodation but even personalized - next level, perfectly clean, organized, private, perfectly positioned. Close driving to surfers paradise SH45 or stunning parks and waterfront walkways for non-surfers, I would say it has anything for anyone.
