    Very quiet and private location surrounded by bush with amazing birdlife. Really prompt and accurate communication with our hosts, check-in very easy. Unit and facilities superbly comfortable, clean and well appointed. Far more provided by host (books, magazines, food etc) than we had expected. Next level to anything we have experienced to date.

    This lovely little unit was absolutely perfect for a quick getaway for my brother and I. Located in a quiet spot at the end of an enchanting driveway peace and serenity abound. Everything was clean and tidy but not bare. The kitchen was well equipped and held a few extras which meant we didn’t have to make any mad dashes to the supermarket for forgotten items. The bed and futon were comfortable. The outdoor area was amazing. Highly recommend.

    From the moment you arrive at their secluded place you are greated with bird song, trees and a very warm welcome. Maria has gone to the effort of putting up a welcome sign with our names on and as you walk inside you are greated with flowers and many more treats.The place is immaculate. Would love to come back soon.

    We loved our stay here. A peaceful escape surrounded in native bush and birds. Everything you could want was supplied, all your comforts looked after, but what really stole our hearts was the atmosphere. Thanks Maria and Chris, your escape is truly a tonic for the soul.

    What a stunner! The photos on the listing don’t do the place justice, the abundance of bird life is remarkable and there’s a 99.9% chance you won’t want to leave?. Maria did an amazing job as the host and the place was immaculate ready for our stay so a massive thank you to you. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will definitely be coming back again!

    Well worth staying here. The accommodation is beautifully presented with food items included. The gem is all the tuis' in the surrounding bush. Very private, but also close to the beach and cycle tracks.
