Brilliant
I can't recommend Whispering Pines highly enough, what a magical place! Only complaint is that the wifi didn't work even after asking about it, but this didn't detract from the stay as we wouldn't have used it anyway.

It was just perfect but the best part was the friendliness and helpfulness of the owner, David. He was waiting for us at the airport and had delivered a hire car to the property for our use. Went out of his way to help with restaurant reservations and provided a mobile phone for use on the island (Telstra don't do roaming). Can't fault anything.

Far from the crowds.
Our first visit to Norfolk Island. A car was supplied and ready to go on site. The island's roads are riddled with pot-holes. Locals are friendly and everyone driving flicks their finger or hand to say hi. Petrol A$2-06/litre The HILLY is a decent restaurant. Kingston comprises the heritage listed buildings from the colonial convict era 1788=1855.Captain Cook lookout is a scenic spot. Mt Pitt is a worthwhile elevated location in the National park. Plenty of tours to select for all tastes. Supermarket prices often double that of NZ. Would return again.
