Easy Stay with Friendly Host

Lovely property in quiet spot about 20 minutes south of Oamaru. Kerry was really easy to communicate with and super flexible. The house had lots of space for the 6 adults who stayed and room in one of the bedrooms for two kids too. This home is clearly lived in when not rented out and there are a few bits of the owners property around but this wasn’t a major problem.
