It was easy to get to accommodation from airport and ideally situated for activities on North Shore and further North with lovely beaches and shops nearby. The house was well appointed with everything we needed for our stay, like being at a home away from home. We were surrounded by bush and bird song and enjoyed the lovely large deck off the living area. Access was easy from the undercover carport into living area and with two bedrooms and bathroom on bottom story ideal for a less able person. The upstairs bedrooms and bathroom allowed each family group to have their own space while the open plan living made the most of communal times. Ideal for family holiday accommodation. ##### Jemmavue Stayed 2 nights in May 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Conny 7 Apr 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very nice house! The hosts were very friendly and helpful. They made us feel very welcome and showed us around. The house is very big and beautiful. The living room had warm colors and was very comfy. The kitchen had all ustensils we needed. The bathrooms were provided with soap, shampoo and conditioner. We really loved the huge purple bedroom. Everything was really clean. When the sun is out, you can sit on the Large deck, where is also a bbq. We really loved this please and would definitely stay here again! ##### Conny ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [ibis budget Auckland Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Auckland-Airport.h9144904.Hotel-Information) > > [Sultan of Side - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Side-Hotels-Sultan-Of-Side-All-Inclusive.h11041800.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Parking in Gatwick](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gatwick-Hotels-Hotel-With-Parking.0-0-d182523-thotelwithparking.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Convent Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-The-Convent-Hotel.h57330689.Hotel-Information) > > [Cordis, Auckland by Langham Hospitality Group](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Cordis.h8072.Hotel-Information) > > [SkyCity Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-SkyCity-Hotel.h40995.Hotel-Information) > > [Naumi Hotel Auckland Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Naumi-Hotel-Auckland-Airport.h10062481.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Auckland Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Novotel-Auckland-Airport.h4223624.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel THB Los Molinos - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ibiza-Town-Hotels-Hotel-THB-Los-Molinos-Adults-Only.h1877251.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Hotel Auckland Wynyard Quarter](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Travelodge-Hotel-Auckland-Wynyard-Quarter.h48652636.Hotel-Information) > > [Clarence Court Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Clarence-Court-Hotel.h1145230.Hotel-Information) > > [Centra Wharf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Canary-Wharf-Studios.h20260044.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Millennium Auckland](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Grand-Millennium-Auckland.h408966.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Gloucester - South by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gloucester-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Gloucester-South.h463411.Hotel-Information) > > [3 bed cottage to rent in Sidmouth - 3 mins walk from town and beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sidmouth-Hotels-3-Bed-Cottage-To-Rent-In-Sidmouth-3-Mins-Walk-From-Town-And-Beach.h32652389.Hotel-Information) > > [Terlon Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liverpool-Hotels-Terlon-Apartments.h22635371.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near The Shard](https://www.expedia.co.uk/The-Shard-Hotels.0-l6273936-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Avani Auckland Metropolis Residences](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Avani-Auckland-Metropolis-Residences.h6374088.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Auckland Queen Street](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Mercure-Auckland-Queen-Street.h63852488.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Ripley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ripley-Hotels.d6194523.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Emerald Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Auckland-Hotels-Emerald-Inn.h6317232.Hotel-Information) > > [Liseberg Grand Curiosa Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gothenburg-Hotels-Liseberg-Grand-Curiosa-Hotel.h88444331.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Southampton (SOU) to Inverness (INV)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/sou/inv/southampton-to-inverness) > > [Flights from Stroud (GLO) to Forest (GCI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/glo/gci/gloucester-to-guernsey) ### Cars > [Car hire in Bourg-Saint-Maurice](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Bourg-Saint-Maurice.d6034116.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Pizzo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Pizzo.d6169412.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Austria](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/theme-holidays/ski-holidays/11/Austria) > > [Mecca Bingo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mecca-Bingo-Scarborough-City-Centre.d553248621532494424.Attraction) > > [Alexanderplatz](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alexanderplatz-Mitte.d508242.Attraction) ### Holiday Rentals > [Newcastle Holiday Rentals](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newcastle-Holiday-Rentals.d4979.Travel-Guide-HolidayRentals)
