Just Perfect
Had two superb days here on our second trip to Kawhia. Love the very clean and tidy house, the views and the three lawn mowers who came to visit! (sheep) Patsy, our host, made everything so easy adding to a wonderful feeling of relaxation. Beds very comfortable, kitchen very easy to work in. We were all most reluctant to leave and return to town on Sunday. Thank you so much for our lovely happy time, from all four of us. Jenny

Lovely host and property
Patsy is an excellent host. She is lovely and very welcoming, giving us lots of details about Kawhia. Her property is spacious and well-kept, with beautiful views and garden. The location was perfect for us, being near shops and our friends at the campsite.

What a beautiful home, so comfortable and welcoming after a long stressful week at work.
My sister inlaw was supposed to come from Hastings but couldn't make it at the last minute due to health reasons so my brother in-law and partner stayed. Sorry we didn't get to meet Patsy but we all thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.

Happy non - fishers!
A super clean, tidy, and comfortable place to stay in laid back Kawhia, The ever changing view over the harbour as the tide rolled in and out was very relaxing and even though the fishing trip was cancelled due to the big swell we had some quality time to chill out. Many thanks to Patsy, our hostess for the part she played in making our stay very special. Jenny

Roomy house
Great location in a quite street, roomy house with comfy beds. The owner was lovely and helpful and mentioned places to see.
Sea views were small but patsy did mention she was going to cut back some trees.
I must mention the shower was a 2/10 for pressure.
Other than that we had a very pleasant stay.Thank you Patsy 😊
