New Zealand“A peaceful, relaxed atmosphere with good support from the hosts and plenty of privacy. The cottage was small and perfectly formed. Unusual to have the kitchen and bathroom facilities in a caravan but they were clean and easy to use.” 
Vicki New Zealand“Fabulous hosts, so easy to chat with. Definitely quirky but just relax and you'll love it. The Whare has great vibes and we had the best sleep, it's so peaceful. Highly recommended.”- Paul New Zealand“Really grateful to Matthew and Diane for their hospitality. The Whare is quirky but very cosy. Very serene location which, with different personal circumstances, would have been very relaxing.”
