A really beautiful NZ house

A delightful property. Beautifully built in NZ wood and style. 2 bathrooms for 2 couples was a must. Our hosts provided eggs,bacon etc for breakfast. The house was in the countryside just outside Havelock North. Beautiful garden and views. Added extra was 2 donkeys in the field. Loved our visit

Wonderful setting, peaceful country setting but only minutes from the town.

Character property, with good amenities. Added bonus of breakfast provisions. The hosts were very helpful, there were some very minor issues with a leaking cold tap and shower head that needs repairing in the ensuite together with a plug that didn’t fit the bath, however these in no way detracted from our stay which was very enjoyable. We would love to come back and wouldn’t hesitate recommending the property to friends.
