Perfect for travelling with kids. The property owner left clear check-in and check-out instructions in absentia and we had total privacy while we were there. My only (minor) constructive feedback is that there is no clothes dryer, but there are plenty of laundromats nearby. Havelock North, Hastings and Napier are all within easy driving distance and all really beautiful towns. Well worth a visit. I only wish we could have stayed longer. ##### Lisa-Maree ### 6/10 Okay #### Susan T. 20 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Good location - poor communication with host Beautiful location, well-appointed but on a busy road. Difficult to contact host, no response from contacts given in welcome pack. This made it difficult when we had a problem. Host finally contacted us 4 hours after initial call.
