What a wonderful place to stay! Susan and Herman have created an invironment where all your needs are met and exceeded. The beautiful rooms are filled with amenities that go above and beyond most other B&Bs in New Zealand. Without their knowledge of local sites we wouldn't have found some of the places that we now consider highlights of our trip. Thank you again!

Dear Susan and Herman,

Could I reiterate on behalf of Denise and myself how lovely it was to stay with you recently? We had a delightful visit to the Peninsula - despite the weather it was a highlight of the trip and your warmth and hospitality contributed much to our enjoyment. We won't hesitate to recommend your B & B to any travellers to NZ.

Thanks greatly,

Jen.
