Why wouldn't you love a chalet in a bush clad oasis of fresh air. What a great time we had with a total experience of solitude, where everything was catered for. We received a gorgeous breakfast hamper full of wholesome food and juices. Thank you to the wonderful hosts who have made a beautiful retreat for their guests.

Very good with a touch of countryside

We enjoyed our stay there. Lovely host who made us welcomed upon arrival. Complementary breakfast in morning was a nice little touch. Being a country boy myself I particularly enjoyed being in the small section of bush with sounds of birds and insects all day long and night. Thank you guys. 🙂

Lovely Property

The property was beautiful and there were several amenities. Breakfast was dropped off in the morning, which was lovely. The hosts were very welcoming and greeted us when we arrived. They made sure our stay was as comfortable as possible while we were there.

Very secluded spot, the only noises we heard the time we were there was the birds... despite the fact that it is only 50m minutes from Auckland it feels like you are miles from anywhere

Second time in last 6 months and service is even better

Second time in last 6 months and service is better than last time. Perfect little batch gives you the nice country side feeling but still 30ish min drive from the city. Well decorated and very comfy. Have a small bush walk to stretch your legs if you feel board. Host is super friendly and very supportive. Highly recommended and will come again for sure.
