Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travellers who prefer unfussy accommodation with a personal touch. They are usually family-run, and your host will provide local recommendations and optional meals. Often cheaper than regular hotels, guest houses can also feature a cosy living room and a garden.
Great location and wonderful place to stay, had everything you could think of and need and lots of little extras.
Thank you for the book, I work in a primary school and will be taking it to work with me.
Loved the spa pool, host was very friendly and informative. Would def stay again,
Loves the facilities they were clean and like a home away from home. And the hosts were amazing. Loved the peace and quiet. I could is live there. Loved how it is set in the garden, felt like the cottage was part of the garden , not the other way around.
Exceeded our expectations. Great location overlooking Hokianga Harbour. Very quiet with great views. The little cabin was well appointed for a 1-2 night stay as it has no cooking facilities other than a microwave, which we knew about. Adding barbeque facilities would be the icing on the cake. The fact you have to wash your dishes outside in a sink under a covered area did not detract from the appeal of the property
Incredible facilities. Hotel-style bathroom (amazing after being used to hostel bathrooms!), and lovely kitchen and common area with TV, books etc. Quiet location. Owners were lovely and the right amount of being involved without intruding on my stay
A beautiful guest house in the vicinity of Waipoua Kauri forest, with fantastic garden. It is located close to a main road, but there was not traffic at night and the place was very quiet. As there is no town nearby, we could observe an amazing sky with thousands and thousands of stars in the evening.
Very friendly and helpful host.
Great location, Candy and Dave made us most welcome, great hosts. It had more than we expected, best place we have stayed in, very good value for money, and that includes many motels, holiday homes etc in Australia, NZ and Fiji etc. PS you don't need a key, its that safe.
