When you are driving up to this place you will be asking yourself Where am I going. On arrival you will immediately know that you made a good choice It is a perfect choice for staying in rather than going out to find a restaurant It is worth a stop at the local butcher and market on the way Our afternoon wine on the deck and early evening BBQ looking over Mercury Bay was spectacular followed by a couple of games of pool a good Netflix drama and a comfortable bed. It couldn’t have been much better

Veronica was a wonderful hostess with her warm welcome and asked us to let her know anything we needed. Also, she had put together a booklet with info on local highlights, best beaches, supermarkets, restaurants etc. She left a bottle of fresh milk and another of chilled water in the refrigerator, so thoughtful.

    We loved everything about Parkland Place! Maria and Guy are wonderful hosts. Breakfast was delicious and generous. I especially loved the fresh fruit. The location was quiet with a little river in back. The beach is a quick walk away. The main town is very nearby. Our room was fantastic with a private back patio facing beautiful foliage with the river just beyond. We had a king bed and spa bath - all sparkling clean.

    Treetops Cottage is THE perfect place to stay in the area. The cottage is great, the view stunning and it is very well-equipped with anything you may need. The hosts are fantastic, they even left us some food, wine and fresh fruit. Finally, it is in a great location. We hope to come back soon!

    The accommodation was finished to a high standard, very clean and comfortable. Faith and Ralph were great hosts and respected our privacy, but were on call if needed. Lots of local information available too. Fruit, yoghurts, bread, cereals , milk and fruit juice were available for breakfast with a supply of tea and coffee. Also very quiet, so a good place to rest up!
