My partner loved it here, it was quiet apart from the wind but was really beautiful here, close to where we had to go for our event in Waitara. Thank you so much for letting us stay and we would love to come back just for a holiday.

Nothing to say here.

"A cozy home away from home."

9.0

This just really felt like a cozy home away from home - it reminded me of our old family bach. The big highlight for all of us was Slinky. We always miss our cats when we are away on holiday so it was awesome having an optional cat for the stay. He's an absolute sweety! It was also just nice being somewhere so quiet. We live in the suburbs, so it was so nice not having any road noise and waking up to birdsong in the morning. We slept well there. The house itself has really good vibes, like a very positive wairua which helped make it a relaxing stay.

It's a little damp in the house - but that's normal for houses of that era in a location like Waitara.
