What a wonderful stay we had, the hosts were wonderful and showed us around while we could not help but enjoy the amazing views toward Auckland city and harbour and distant views to Bethell's beach in the opposite direction. We felt very welcome & from the moment we walked into the apartment which is below the main house, we felt this is a quality property the views were awesome. You are in the picturesk countryside but only a short 30 - 40 min drive to the city. We felt very privelidged to stay here & would love come back again.
