Wonderful house and location

We loved our stay here. The garden is amazing and the outdoor dining area is just the thing for the long summer evenings. The location is also great; close to the water and a short drive to town. Checkin process was easy and straightforward. Would absolutely stay here again (and will try to next time we’re in town!)

Awesome Stay

We loved our visit to Mark's house. It was exactly as described, though I don't think that the photos actually did justice to the garden - it's even better than it looks in the pictures. It was well set up for our family of five (2 adults & 3 children). We really appreciated that it offered us the comforts of home, and being able to make use of the vegetable garden. It is in a good location - there are a number of tracks nearby that make for a quick walk to the wharf and and into Raglan. Thanks for having us to stay!
