Fabulous house for a relaxing break

We loved everything about the house. The well-stocked kitchen was a joy; beds very comfortable; lots of lovely areas to be inside and out. Very strongly recommend as a home away from home.

Modern and comfortable

Beautiful house on a hillside section surrounded by oaks and pine. Plenty of space for a family, big kitchen, laundry, and a lot of little touches of hospitality. Short drive into town and beaches — this property isn’t central but that feels like a feature not a problem.

Stunning Home

If you're looking for place to rest and recuperate, this home is it. Well apointed. A short drive from town and just far enough out of town for peace and quiet. Thanks for sharing your home Craig.

Absolute oerfection

This home is absolutely beautiful! Our family had one of the best holidays ever staying here, so much so we really didn’t want to leave! We really appreciated the extra little things that were done to make our stay enjoyable, the fire was lit so the house was toasty warm when we arrived, a big bowl of fresh fruit for our granddaughter, and bottle of wind in the fridge for us adults to enjoy. Our granddaughter loved playing in the tree house up the back of the property. The house is well appointed with a kitchen that has everything you could ever need. Views on a cold autumn morning are stunning, with the fog rolling in across the paddocks below. Thank you Craig and family, we’ll definitely stay again the next time we’re back in Gisborne if the property is available.
