Peaceful and convenient
A comfortable home in a peaceful location! It's close enough to the city to be convenient, but still manages to feel like a rural getaway. The property is beautiful, and the hosts are friendly and easy to communicate with. We're new to the Auckland area, and this was a nice place to have a bit of a holiday before getting into our own home!

Beautiful spot, peaceful retreat, only downside is the "smart" TV didn't have any useable, useful apps like Netflix etc. Decor was a blast from the past, but that gave a Bach like feel to the place, so if that's what you're looking for, you'll love this place!

Brett booked on behalf of his family who were visiting from Wellington.
On there arrival he realized that his daughter had bought her two dogs and he realized we had a no dog policy but i made an exception to let them stay providing they didn't go inside and for any pooh to be removed so was disappointed that i had to clean up two right at the front door on the lawn.
I always say if there's any problems to give me a call so was very surprised to hear that the netflix app along with many more were not showing as they were on the tv.
Unless guests let us know of any issues we can't fix them.
So we are sorry that this happened and have no idea how but will certainly get it fixed.

Just spent 3 months staying here. Donna was a wonderful host, made me very welcome and nothing was too much trouble. I would definitely recommend.

After a 3 months stay Susan left the house immaculate.
She is a lovely lady and a 5 plus star guest.
It was a pleasure to have her stay and highly recommend her to other hosts.
