A Very Comfortable Home

Such a spacious and well equipped accommodation in a lovely historic town. We would recommend it to anyone looking for a place in the area. We were only two people but it would certainly be comfortable for a family or a group of adults. It has everything one could hope to find for a comfortable stay.

golf trip

We had a group of 4 players attending a golf tournament in Wanganui and stayed 4 nights. It was clean,tidy and well presented with far more available beds for larger groups. Great friendly hosts to deal with and very efficient.They had left cereals,condiments etc available for our use whilst we didn't use them I am sure many would find this useful. Highly recommend this place and couldn't fault anything at all. Thanks for sharing your lovely house with us.

Perfect Family Accommodation

A great stay was booked for a 3 day stay for some family from auckland. Host are lovely as they live behind the house but that was ok as its still very private. House had everything its warm cosy and very homely but would suggest a dryer as there were not enough towels for a family of 7 for those 3 days. And emptying the rubbish bin an recycling bin before new guest arrive as they were full the day of check in. Overall i 100% recommend.
