Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: You could feel the history in the different areas of the property. It was beautiful in its originality if you know the history. Was privileged to see its beauty and surroundings on arrival on a sunny afternoon to when it was spitting/raining in the evening and early in the morning with the morning mist hovering over the ranges. I would love to come again and bring my family and extended family as a big getaway one time in the near future.
Negative: Nothing to dislike if you are coming to this proprety without knowing the history. I thoroughly enjoyed this property and the tranquility and peaceful feeling it gave being out in the ranges in its secluded own oasis.
Summary: Beautiful getaway right in the heart of Waitakere Ranges.

Positive: We were upgraded by the friendly reception staff member and loved our room with a balcony and a great view over the forest and out to Auckland City. Jibin and his other staff members were very friendly and so helpful! We had evening meals there for 3 nights and 3 breakfasts too. All were first rate. The steak was particularly beautiful. The whole week was superb and we really relaxed. The Ridge Walk was perhaps a little suprising lol. A bit steeper than I imagined but the views were to die for!
Negative: Just nothing!
Summary: What a amazing place to stay. Quiet and relaxing surrounded by beautiful native bush and birds!
