This little studio is perfect for staying in the Auckland region without being in the city itself.Nestled just a short distance up the driveway from the main road, the home feels like a secluded retreat in the bush without requiring a long trek into the ranges. If you’re looking for solitude with easy access, this spot is ideal.The owner had the space ready for us and was very communicative. The studio was clean, comfortable, and well-suited for two people. The air conditioning was a welcome feature during the Auckland summer, and the washing machine was a great convenience.We enjoyed being able to walk to a nearby bush trail and explore the area on foot.The kitchen includes a stovetop, which we used for cooking dinner and breakfast. However, there is no microwave, so plan meals accordingly. We managed just fine with what was available.Overall, we had a great stay and would absolutely return!
