Perfect
We highly recommend staying at this property. The staff are fantastic. The surroundings peaceful. The accommodation very reminiscent of Europe and extremely comfortable. We couldn’t have picked a more perfect place to take a break. And a special mention for Kumara who took the time to make us feel welcome!
