Exquisite!
We had the best stay here! The house is beautiful and cozy—I honestly wish my house looked like this (especially the bathroom). It was easy to find and all instructions were clearly laid out (with photos). I’d give this one 10 stars if I could. I hope to make it back some day!

Festive Getaway
The properry was as seen in the pictures. We were impressed with the cleanliness, as well as the little details, such as the underfloor heating and heated towel rails in the bathroom. It was spacious enough for our family of four. It is close to most attractions in and around Hastings.

Fantastic stay for our long weekend! Coming home after a long days of Squash and a few beers to a nice cosy place! Walking into a pre warmed house on a cold winters night on our first day was the best first impression! We loved the small thoughtful complimentry gifts and it was warm and cozy!

Clean, tidy and great location for exploring Hawkes Bay
Perfect spot for our family of four and our little dog. Shona and Jason were great to deal with and always prompt in their replies to our inquiries and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. Wonderful, friendly hosts. We really appreciated them ensuring the property was fully fenced for our little dog, so we could relax while she was exploring outside. Was lovely having treats for us to enjoy in the fridge on our arrival. Games room with table tennis table and skateboard were a huge hit! Really close to all our favourite destinations in havelock north and great access to the rest of Hawkes Bay. We would stay again.

Amazing house and spot
The house was perfect for hubby, Major (our dog) and I. Lovely quiet location and had everything we needed for the stay. The welcome gifts and small details such as creams in bathroom and spare tins in cupboard were very much appreciated. The nespresso machine was also appreciated and we had fun playing ping pong in the games room. Thank you so much, we will defiantly be back.

Cosy, with space!
This house was comfortable and felt roomy for a two-bedroomer. The only issue we had was trying to watch the small TV from where it was mounted in the corner. If it was wall-mounted above the non-functioning fire place, it would allow more people to watch it. Great outdoor amenities, very quiet and peaceful. Will definitely use again when I'm in the Hawkes Bay.

A great stay in Hastings
We live in Hastings and needed a place to stay for a week while our house underwent some renovations. We had a great time on Churchill Street - the treats in the fridge were wonderful and the home delivered everything we needed for our stay, with the games room being an added bonus! Larger than we needed as a couple - could have easily accommodated a larger family for sure. Would happily recommend.

What an immaculate place!
My friend and I were staying here on a work trip to shoot a wedding in Havelock North. We had such a great stay, it was easy as to check-in. It was incredibly clean, I couldn't fault it! Beds were comfy, it was warm, cosy, homely, modern. Linen was beautiful. Such a great little spot to come back to after a long day.
