Thank you for your lovely comments
Pleased you enjoyed your stay
We spent 5 nights here over Christmas as a family with a toddler. It was a perfect property for our needs, we enjoyed plenty of coffees and meals in the outdoor area, and our toddler enjoyed running all around the section. The adults also thoroughly enjoyed the swingball set! A very comfortable, clean and spacious property, set up really well for families. We really enjoyed our stay. Would stay again!
Comfortable stay, lovely, clean and tidy. Wifi access and Netflix helped heaps. So close to the beach and a beautiful forest walk. Good communication with owners.
Very much enjoyed.
A wonderful stay. Couldn't ask for better. Four adults and 3 grand children. The beach, the bush, the park, bikes to use. A lovely 'home', ideal for a large family stay. Thank you so much.

We had a great time. The house is in a quieter street of Foxton. Very clean and well appointed with everything you could need. Nice deck and lawn out the back. The walk through the nearby sand dunes to the beach was really nice too. I would recommend this house.

The property is immaculate and well maintained. The photography do not do it justice. We had a lovely stay, made us of the bike tracks and sand dunes, ate well, pushed board games and relaxed. Just what we all needed. Thanks
We had a lovely short stay here. Photos don’t do the immaculate, spacious house justice. We really appreciated the log fire was all ready to be lit when we got in late. Thanks for the extra kids bike to use, it meant we could all bike together through the forest across the road. We’ll be back in summer!

Lovely and quiet family orientated property.
Plenty to do and not enough time to do it.
Nice and close to dunes and beach, open grassed areas etc.
Well appointed kitchen, with everything you need to cook like you're at home.
Thanks again.
two couples in Foxton to compete in the Oceania Orienteering Championships.The property suited our purposes perfectly..Access was easy as per the instructions and everything spotless.Such appliances as we used worked well.Overall very happy with our stay. Our only tiny comment is that the shower was very economical for water usage. and a bit tricky to set the temperature. Would be very happy to return if we are in the area again.
