Summary: 13 of us all had a bed and space to be inside and outside at this picturesque location with lots to do including kayaking, swimming, so many photo opportunities as well as easy access to all the area had to offer. Easy to find. So many cleaning products covered all that was needed. Kitchen was a bit small but we managed. One toilet, but ones next door to playground if needed. Kids had a ball. The experience has provided a lot of memories .

Summary: Our family had a lovely relaxing weekend at this old but charming house. The views over the estuary from the upstairs deck, especially at dawn, were perfect and we all loved bobbing around it in the kayaks (water was crystal clear). We also went for a bush walk, played tennis and popped over to Nugget Point. A classic New Zealand crib (bach)!
