Are you looking for a place that is peaceful, private and quiet? A place to relax after a day of adventures in the Bay of Plenty or maybe a romantic getaway? Perhaps you are working away from home and need that little bit of home away from home. Our modern well appointed Apartment is for you. It's spacious yet cozy, with 2 comfy couches, a rocking chair and TV in the living room, a fully functional kitchen with large fridge, stove, dishwasher, and microwave, and of course, comfortable beds. Free Wifi with unlimited broadband is available. The ranch slider opens onto your own private covered courtyard and woodland garden view, which looks different in each season. There is also a variety of bird life.
My husband and I, have been married for 40 years. Rick is a Kiwi and I am an American, we have lived in both countries about equally. We have 3 children, each are married and have children. I am a former caterer who loves to bake, cook and entertain friends and family. I enjoy working in our very large garden, and our grandchildren have a huge place in our lives. I feel so blessed to be able to live in this most beautiful country, and hope one day I might get to greet you when you come to stay in our Garden Retreat.
