I had a wonderful stay at this quaint B&B nestled in a peaceful residential neighborhood. The hosts, Pam and Dennis, were warm and made every effort to ensure our comfort. The room was nicely decorated and offered lovely views of the beautiful gardens, but it was a bit noisy at times due to family activities in the house. The breakfast was delightful and so well-prepared, which really added to the overall experience. Just a heads up, if you're sensitive to noise, that could be a minor drawback.

Our stay was amazing from start to finish! Pam and Dennis were wonderful hosts who made us feel right at home in their beautiful B&B. The attic room offered a cozy atmosphere with a lovely private bathroom, though be mindful of the low ceilings! We enjoyed breakfast surrounded by stunning gardens. Just a note for light sleepers: for a quieter experience, consider a main floor room. Overall, it was fantastic value and a great way to start our New Zealand adventure.
