Absolutely The Best!!

We had a wonderful stay. Wendy and Alan were friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed, right down to a rental car when we had trouble getting one. Wendy took us into Auckland to make sure everything went smoothly for us. Our VRBO was outstanding and lovely. Their place was absolutely beautiful. If we ever go back we will definitely book there for another stay. We loved the swimming pool as well, so relaxing.

Fantastic property

Wendy and Allen are great hosts. I had numerous wonderful conversations. Besides the stunning view, the sheep are a plus. The accommodations were perfect, and if I had been near a good trout stream, I would have been happy to stay longer. A definite gem.

Stunning view and gorgeous place!

Our only regret was that we had to leave so soon! Wendy provided excellent driving directions with pictures to help us when google maps was a bit off. We found it, even in the dark. The gated entrance made us feel extra safe. The apartment is huge. A very comfortable bed and linens. Wendy left us a handwritten note and breakfast basket of eggs, bread, fruit and there was a fridge with cheese, milk, and coffee/tea fixings. Even a milk fridge to make fancy coffee. The place is spotless and big. We had our own private outdoor terrace with outdoor shower as well as shower inside. We were also welcome in their outdoor sitting area in their garden overlooking a sublime vista. The pool… just beautiful. Unfortunately our 12 hour flight delay negated our use. But it was amazing. Tilly the bonus dog was sweet too!
