BEDDING CONFIGURATIONS:
> Standard Nightly Rates are based on two people sleeping in each of the Queen/Double beds.
> A small Extra Bed and/or Extra Bedroom surcharge(s) can be payable for additional beds/bedrooms if Single occupancy is preferred for each bed.
> A reminder there is the huge main upstairs bedroom with multiple beds. Plus a small Twin bedroom up a few stairs off from the huge main upstairs bedroom. Additionally, off the downstairs Lounge, is a conservatory that can act as a makeshift 3rd Bedroom with guest(s) sleeping on a couch(es).
FRIENDLY REMINDERS:
> This historic unrenovated Guest-Wing is brimming with odd quirks - and is probably not the right accommodation for anyone fussy.
> This is an old guest-wing that has dated decor and amenities. Things are clean and simple but unable to be immaculately pristine.
> Large executive desk in the huge upstairs main bedroom.
SPECIAL NOTES:
> As one of the oldest functional buildings in the Kaipara today, this wonderful "Old Lady" is rich in history, heritage, quirks and idiosyncracies, featuring relaxed and dated decor - so perhaps not ideal for anyone "fussy"!
> Also, because it is an original Classroom at this heritage-rich historic property that has been converted into Guest-Wings, it may be possible to hear some noise from other Wings at times, not dissimilar to hearing noise from an adjoining apartment - or adjacent classroom! :)
