We will definitely spread the word to our family and friends. Hope to see you again soon, many thanks." Scott and Anna 16-18 May 2017. "We stayed with my partner over just two days for a getaway in winter. First of all the hosts are incredibly nice and helpful. You feel right at home immediately. The place is absolutely beautiful with big windows to enjoy the winter sun. We could see the sheep calmly chilling in the sun, as well as the chickens coming out on the backyard at 11am. This is a sustainable house with bits of really cool technology that make you feel like you are not only relaxing but also helping the planet. Roger the host was kind enough to let us grab some of the fresh oranges from his organic orchard which were heavenly delicious. They provide bicycles for free so we let our adventurous side kick in and we explored all the nearby town cycling. We took the Great Taste Trail that includes beautiful views of the beach. This stay will be one of those things that will stay on our memory as one of the happiest moments. I would like to come back when we can." Gabriela Lopez and Pedro, Wellington.
