We loved our stay. The breakfast was so nice, lovely yogurt with musuli with muffins and butter. Nice to have a 1 litre milk. Bed was very comfortable and had a good night sleep. Love the fact that our little dog could be there and had a lovely orchard to roam around. It was far enough away from the main house that you felt like you were in your own world. We will be back to stay again next time we visit the Grandchildren. Thank you so much every thing was so lovely.

Great hospitality in lovely tranquil location

This property is tucked away in a quiet, rural location but is perfectly located for access to beaches, walks, shops etc. Brendon was extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful, suggesting we check out the surf - which was fab! Wish we'd stayed for more than one night!

The unit was perfect for what we wanted for our stay in Tauranga. The orchards are peaceful and a welcome change from a city feel. The unit was clean, and the extra touches of yoghurt, crumpets, jam, coffee and Nespresso machine made a big difference. A delightful air bnb.
