My daughter (17) and I absolutely loved our stay. Anna’s communication was fantastic, and we felt welcomed even before we had started our journey to Whaingaroa (Raglan). The house is very inviting, and had ample space for the two of us, yet with the three bedrooms and large living area, we could have easily had the rest of our family stay- and a couple of extra’s. Both decks (yes, an upper and lower deck) again give ample space for relaxing, reading, eating, or enjoying the bush during the day- and the song of the various birds-or the stars at night.There is a peacefulness and warmth that comes not only from the location, but the various pieces that adorn the walls. You truly feel like you are at home when you first arrive, and that feeling remains for the duration of your stay.We loved the proximity to a couple of beautiful wee bays, as well as only a brief drive to grab coffee and kai- thanks for the coffee advice, Anna!We have raved about your whare to the rest of our family, and we will definitely stay again. ##### Karl D.

Perched high on the hill with harbour views (glimpses), caught the breeze nicely. Great outlook over the ponga trees below. Very well equipped with everything you need. Just turned up, chill out and enjoy the relaxed Raglan vibe. I'd recommend the better walk to town is via Government Rd, then along the water front, rather than down the main road (about 15 mins).

The property was as shown in the photos, lovely view of the harbour and bush. Great to have some games and toys for the little ones. Linen was provided which made life easier for me. Nice touches around the place like some shampoo and heated towel rails. Plenty of cooking pots, utensils and serving dishes -loved the BBQ. All the family had a great holiday.

Lots of space in the large lounge and felt very open with all the windows and views out over the tree tops. A very tiday, comfortable place to stay. It was disappointing though that the DVD player would not work (the DVD slot would not open to allow us to put in the DVD). It was great to be able to have all the board games on offer though.

The bach was stunning, it felt more like a home and was equipped with everything and more you could need.
