Jan’s place was clean and comfortable and she’s a great host. Her place is wonderfully appointed in terms of furnishings and necessities. The extras - breakfast items and sweets - was icing on the cake. Check in was super easy and Jan is a great communicator - as accessible as you want/need. She offered some great ideas on things to do and places to eat. Things we did and would recommend:1. Stop at Blue Spring en route and Hamilton Gardens upon arrival (supper at Reggie’s - very good )2. Day trip to Waitomo Caves - Glow Worm walking and tubing tour. 3. Day trip to Bridal Falls and Raglan (supper at Ulo’s - best meal we’ve had in NZ)4. Biked the Te Awa River Ride from Hamilton Gardens to Ngaruawahia and back (supper at Chim Thai - very good).

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this spacious accommodation, especially because of the wonderfully warm and welcoming owner who lives in the ground-level suite. The beautifully landscaped backyard stretching the length of the house is such a nice place to relax after the day's activities. Also, the house is so well-stocked, everything and more you could possibly want. Super clean, comfortable, big enough for a family to stay. We highly, highly recommend this as your stay when in Hamilton. Again, many thanks to Jan, such a lovely host.

This is a great place to stay in Hamilton. Just across the river from the CBD and only about a 2 minute walk from the river. House was very quiet and comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with required equipment, plus our host left us fruit juice, bread, milk and condiments on our arrival. The house has a beautiful courtyard that is very private. The beds were comfortable and the living areas spacious. Our host, who lives downstairs, was really friendly and helpful, even lending us a picnic blanket for one of our day trips. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. If we return to Hamilton, we know where to stay!!

Home away from home.

This home is incredible for a short or long stay, our trip was very last minute and Jan was so helpful and accommodating towards our group. The heater was left on for us upon arrival, fresh bread and milk with a slab of REAL butter in the fridge, what more could 1 ask for. The whole upstairs area gets drenched in sunlight right through the day so relaxing inside or out is that much more enjoyable.Less than 5mins to anywhere. Will definitely love to stay here again.
