Best of both worlds - A lovely little bit of countryside just out of town
It is a nice clean & tidy 2 bedroom unit that was perfect for my wife & myself plus our daughter & her friend. Just on the north side of Napier not far out of town you have the best of both worlds - A lovely little bit of countryside just out of town. It was perfect for us what we were doing during our stay in Napier. Thanks Chris.

Beautiful, quiet, perfect
Quaint, clean and perfect for a family of 4 or less. A rural outlook but a short drive to city. SO quiet! Clean bedding, towels and essentials all provided, including fresh milk and a pkt of biscuits, plunger coffee, a range of tea bags etc. We will be back.

A lovely place to stay - clean and comfortable accommodation. The area is quiet.
We received a lovely warm welcome from Molly, the host's dog, who was no hassle.
On a good night I'm certain you'd be able to see the Milky Way!
I would definitely recommend staying here.....and my parents and brother agree.

Summer holiday
We really enjoyed staying here. The owner was very accommodating when the washing machine stopped working. She went out with her son and brought a new machine which we appreciated. She also brought us a couple of fans when the weather got hot, It was a nice quiet neighbourhood in the country with mainly residents vehicles mostly. As it was a no exit road the kids could ride their bikes up and down the road without much traffic. There was also a short ride to a playground and park area. Some nice cycling tracks were a short distance away also. The cottage was lovely, neat, tidy and nicely decorated.🙂
