Superb We've been on holiday for 2 months, staying in various properties in Northland. This, by far, is the most amazing property we have stayed at. Hearing the Kiwis was unreal, and hubby loved the fishing loved ##### Mary R. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kath L. 10 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Exquisite location - tranquil and private Stunning property hidden away and surrounded by nature. We love fishing - and made the most of this special location. The house is gorgeous and has everything you’ll need. Property owner very friendly and helpful with fishing tips. Our only hiccup was comms with bookabach when trying to extend the stay. Got there in the end. ##### Kath L. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly 16 Apr 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication This is the ideal location for a family getaway no matter the weather. Hosts Scott and Diane were incredibly friendly. They suggested a nearby bush walk with an amazing view which was walkable from the property grounds. The house was well outfitted, clean and welcoming. On our good weather day we got out on the ocean. (They provide kayaks and safety vests). The next day we stayed indoors and played pool, table tennis and enjoyed movies. We even heard kiwi birds nearby at night. Town is just a 20-minute drive away - known for weekend markets and you must visit the local chocolate shop Makana. Such a wonderful gem with amazing hosts - thank you for your hospitality and we will be back. ##### Kelly Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Insotel Fenicia Prestige Suites & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Eulalia-Del-Rio-Hotels-Insotel-Fenicia-Prestige-Suites-Spa.h1399041.Hotel-Information) > > [Mövenpick Hotel Mansour Eddahbi Marrakech](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marrakech-Hotels-Movenpick-Hotel-Mansour-Eddahbi-Marrakech.h564721.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Budapest Korona Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Budapest-Hotels-Mercure-Budapest-Korona-Hotel.h6003.Hotel-Information) > > [Relais & Châteaux L'Assiette Champenoise](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tinqueux-Hotels-Relais-Chateaux-LAssiette-Champenoise.h1168971.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakeside Hotels in Gloucestershire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Gloucestershire-Lakeside-Hotel.0-0-d6046202-tlakesidehotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Avoriaz](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Avoriaz-Hotels.d6023710.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Rainforest Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Franz-Josef-Glacier-Hotels-Rainforest-Retreat.h7088168.Hotel-Information) > > [Tongariro Suites at The Rocks](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Horopito-Hotels-Tongariro-Suites-At-The-Rocks.h9679404.Hotel-Information) > > [Modern Deluxe Leeds City Apt Balcony View](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leeds-Hotels-Modern-Deluxe-Leeds-City-Apt-Balcony-View.h57115558.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Poblenou](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Poblenou-Barcelona-Hotels.0-n179729-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Snowy Mountains](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Snowy-Mountains-Hotels.d6049613.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Napier Town House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Workington-Hotels-Napier-Town-House.h38873381.Hotel-Information) > > [Rosewood Matakauri](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Matakauri-Lodge.h1097561.Hotel-Information) > > [Valentine Lodge Over 25 Couples Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blackpool-Hotels-THE-VALENTINE-Adult-Couples-Only.h48903940.Hotel-Information) > > [Richmond Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Richmond-Hotels-Richmond-Holiday-Park.h29218591.Hotel-Information) > > [Waldorf Astoria Riviera Maya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cancun-Hotels-Waldorf-Astoria-Cancun.h61523736.Hotel-Information) > > [HiltonHotels Hotels in Romford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Romford-Hotels-Hilton-Hotels.0-0-d6144833--bHiltonHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [ibis Rotorua](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rotorua-Hotels-Ibis-Rotorua.h1131218.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Kalabaka](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kalabaka-Hotels.d6051554.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Marriott's Grand Chateau](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Marriotts-Grand-Chateau.h1217263.Hotel-Information) > > [Anglers paradise and great family holiday place](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Makarora-Hotels-Anglers-Paradise-And-Great-Family-Holiday-Place.h37278832.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from London (LHR) to Sanya (SYX)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/syx/london-to-sanya) > > [Flights from Exeter (EXT) to Carlisle (CAX)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ext/cax/exeter-to-carlisle) > > [Flights from Mumbai (BOM) to Diu (DIU)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bom/diu/mumbai-to-diu) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to London (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/yvr/lhr/vancouver-to-london) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Nottingham (NQT)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/nqt/london-to-nottingham) ### Cars > [Car hire in Exeter](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Exeter.d1185.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Packages > [Raasay Ferry](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Raasay-Ferry-Isle-of-Raasay.d553248621580782389.Attraction) > > [Lignano Sabbiadoro Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lignano-Sabbiadoro.d6046836.Holidays-City-Breaks)
