A very special home in a stunning location

We just loved it. So rustic and charming with a really lovely feel. The gardens were beautiful and you could really sense how much the property meant to the owners. The house has wonderful games and the paddle boards and kayaks with the perfect cricket lawn meant there was lots to do. Multiple decks meant different age groups could congregate in different areas.

Fantastic family holiday destination

We loved our stay in your beautiful home, thanks so much! The property was spotlessly clean, well equipped and worked really well for our extended family group - the kids loved playing by the waters edge and mucking about in the kayaks. Thanks so much for all the thoughtful touches such as groceries left for us and even going so far as delivering a TV for us to watch the world cup! Awesome hosts and magic spot by the Kerikeri Inlet, we'd love to come back some time!
