The home is very tastefully decorated, and lovely and clean. Our host had a fire going on our arrival, and both hosts were very friendly and welcoming. The scenery is really lovely, and this place is excellent for a rest. It is also close to the hot pools, and we were able to go into Whakatane for coffees and shopping, and a bush walk. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house and surrounding garden is very attractive. Thank you to our hosts! We would recommend this place to others, and would love to come again. June.
