Excellent value for money
What a lovely place and such awesome hosts! Aside from the house ventilation being a bit noisy and firm (but still comfortable enough) beds, these were quite minor considering the price range for such a lovely space. We are very grateful, and we are looking forward to our next visit - thank you so much Marg and Des!

Excellent as always
Not the first time we've stayed here and hopefully not the last. Cosy idyllic holiday home that provides more than you could need.Only a 2 minute drive to the main beach and Paihia town/shops.Hosts are lovely. We usually stay in very nice hotels and this place was booked last time by us out of urgency & it totally changed my perception of booking a bach. We would gladly return here over and over.

Great spot
Very good.Location excellent.Comfortable house.Pricing very reasonable.A source of minor annoyance was that the owners were still at the property well after agreed check-in time,requiring us to wait in the car on the road untill they left.Also they later returned to the house. On balance we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this listing. Alan J.

Great family space with beautiful garden and deck area with hammocks that were enjoyed immensely. Loads of books, toys for the 3 year old. excellent kitchen, very well equipped. Will very likely make a return trip as the area is full of historical significance and plenty more to see.

Lovely place to stay
Thanks for allowing us to stay in your home. The property was situated close to Paihia and the garden provided a lovely setting for an easter egg hunt for the kids. Our daughter was particularly enamoured with the fish in the pond.
