This is a very spacious house with a lovely fire and perfect location for us. This is our second stay here and we will be back for more. I stayed here with my Sisters and it was a great location having 1 travel from Tauranga, 1 from Auckland and 1 from Taranaki. The beds are comfortable and communication with Jenny was great.
