Great property, easy to find

Our family stayed at this property including an infant and really enjoyed the house. It was a nice retreat from the bustle of the event we were here for and super close to the beach and Four Square if we needed anything. Levin and Foxton are short drives away, very convenient. the Rooms were furnished nicely and everything was clean and easy use. The hosts were easy to deal with, clear instructions and very responsive. Thanks for a great stay!

Perfect stay

The property was all that it promised. Very well appointed. The kitchen a dream for prep when two teenage boys focussed on nutrition and cooking their own meals need to operate in the kitchen at same time as adults. The additional fridge/freezer in the garage a godsend along with the air conditioning. The covered verandah made for very pleasant afternoon cocktail and dinner hour, while the bistro table and chairs outside the kitchen became a favourite spot for the teens to enjoy eating out of the way of the adults. Will definitely stay again.

Great whanau Christmas

We had a great time during our stay. The house is a generous size with a large fenced section. The house is fully equipped with all the things you could need. The hosts were very responsive and kind (setting up a Christmas tree for us as we where there for Christmas). The weather rained on an off but there was still plenty of space to spread out with a toddler and a 9 month old. Perfect house for family’s and we have made lots of memories so thank you ❤️

Great for families!

A quiet getaway, house is great for families - spacious and not full of 'treasures' which is helpful when travelling with kids who like to touch and play and rearrange things! Forrest and beach walkable, 4 square had a good variety of fruit/bread. House has full sized fridge and modern appliances - it was handy everything was super clean. Thanks for having us!
