Each have their own outdoor area with barbecues for relaxing & dining. Te Awa has two queen-sized bedrooms + modern queen Ikea sofa bed in lounge/dining area Our other cottage Te Maunga next door sleeps 2 -4, 1 bedroom with same Ikea sofa bed in the lounge area. The photos hopefully tell our story- I love decorating and mix up a bit of antique with modern. Hopefully you will be very comfortable and happy here at Mahoetahi Farm. Be sure to take a walk down to our river boundary while you are here The best place on the farm! You can swim in the summer! Please help yourself to the vegetable/herb garden. We love to share our produce eggs included when plentiful. Special conditions: We like our guested to feel at home and to treat our place as their home. We value a clean smoke free environment but do permit smoking outside. We have a very friendly border collie cross Labrador dog Ricki who love playing fetch. My daughters dog is Freda still a bit of a puppy also very friendly. We also have a black & white female cat Pepper who may come & visit, many free range chickens, some racehorses in the making hopefully @ the miniature horses belong to our neighbour's...very cute especially the babies ## Property amenities ### Beach -

The cottage was perfect for our stay while visiting relatives in nearby New Plymouth. The host met us on arrival and was very friendly and welcoming.

Gayle’s place is simply divine! My group (four of us) actually discussed going up north and coming back just to enjoy the pastoral beauty and peace of Gayle’s place, which was spotlessly clean, very private and very comfortable. Because there no light pollution at night, we could star gaze, which was a lovely surprise. Gayle even left us some of her farm’s bounty to enjoy (and we did!). I didn’t actually meet Gayle, but her hospitality was very much in evidence throughout our stay. A Very Special experience. ##### Julie B.
