The cottage is cuter and nicer than the photos . Although the drive a bit longer to Kerikeri it's a spectacular drive . Thankyou for a lovely stay

Driftwood seaside escapes should be on everyone’s bucket list. It is simply the most beautiful accomodation I’ve ever stayed at. The tranquility, the magical surroundings and the beautiful beach home overlooking your own private beach is stunning. Book it already.
