The three of us received a friendly greeting from Del and Graeme on arrival and were given a wine/beer to settle in. That was the first of many thoughtful touches. Next was the chocolates on the table; two small actions that were really appreciated by us after a long drive. During our two nights there, Del and Graeme were perfect hosts. They checked in on us but were never intrusive. The main unit was thoughtfully laid out and equipped with everything we could have wanted, and then plenty more! A few more examples of the thoughtfulness and attention to detail were the two (not one) suitcase racks, the oil for cooking and the barbecue outside in the courtyard. The unit was light and airy, so was pleasant to spend time in. Our friend was in the separate bedroom (with ensuite) on the other side of the courtyard and his room was highly appointed too. Both beds were very comfortable, and, importantly, also had comfortable pillows. A big plus was that the unit was exceptionally clean. I have never before been in accommodation that was so clean. In summary, the accommodation and experience were wonderful. My wife and I highly recommend it.

Our two day stay was excellent. Del and Graeme have made this space so comfortable and welcoming. If you can think about it, it was included - a proper home from home. The chocolates and a litre of milk in the fridge won us over straight away. The en suite was so lovely I didn't want to leave it! Thanks again for a great experience.

Can't think of a thing - everything you need is there.

The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The apartment was very clean and in excellent condition. There were very good laundry facilities and a lovely, semi-private garden area. We could take a quick 5 minute walk to a bakery/takeaway food shop. We only saw the main unit which was more of a large studio since the bed, couch and kitchen were all in one big room.

Really well set up, had everything you need and more. Immaculate, good sized bathroom, overall a comfortable cosy studio unit. Friendly helpful owners and a handy location to be based from. Really appreciated being able to have the dog with us - one of the main reasons we chose it, but would stay there again regardless. Thanks for a great stay.

Friendly host. Very clean and fresh, tastefully decorated. Every little detail was thought of. From an array of spices and condiments, to chocolates and milk. From oven mittens to umbrella, from Q-tips to band-aids and panadol. Also, there were 2 stands to put suitcases on, a rarity.

This was a return visit to a lovely studio apartment. Del and Graeme are great hosts and the accommodation is extremely comfortable and well thought out, with everything you need and more besides. It’s within easy walking distance of restaurants and shops, Pukekura Park and the coastal walkway, and an easy drive to Mt Taranaki and various other places of interest.

All good.

A wonderful welcome from our hosts! Every need is catered for in the accommodation. So clean, comfortable and guest-oriented. Highly recommended😁Located so close to town and Pukekura Park. It was an ideal spot for exploring the city and surrounding areas.

We loved this place so much that we would come back to New Plymouth just to stay here. Beautifully and tastefully designed and presented, it is just what we could happily live in when we're old. The beds were super comfy, the bathroom gorgeous and the kitchen was a bonus.

Having to leave...

Breakfast not required - brought own (our preference). Very clean, all amentities excellent, pretty outdoor area, reasonably central, handy to Pukekura Park. Separate bedroom and ensuite an added bonus.

Bed too high, no air conditioning in very hot humid weather

This is an absolute gem. Our hosts Dell & Graeme were welcoming & helpful & the accommodations were fresh, clean, comfortable & very well provisioned. The location is great - close to the CBD with a few local shops for food & groceries just a couple of hundred metres walk away. Terrific value for money.

The narrow drive way - do not try to reverse down it ! There is a parking space also at the front entry which is fine.
