I was traveling on my motorcycle and the place is good 200 meters from the road. And those 200 meters are not smooth tarmac and neither are they flat. Off road conditions but I managed on my sport tourer motorcycle. It was not a big issue in the end. But I can definitely see an inexperienced motorcycle rider struggling. But then again, how often they get people traveling on motorcycles. :-)

Everything. Claire and Steve are very nice. We had some nice chat and some good laughs. Breakfast was an added bonus to start your day. Highly recommended.

The location is very handy for the stunning walking tracks in the Hunua ranges. The quiet rural setting is really beautiful as well. The home-cooked meal was really yummy and an added benefit.

Everything was fine.

It was a pleasure to meet Claire and Steve, we had really nice chats. And a got a little tour around the house and the garden, the dogs were nice too. I can strongly recommend staying here.

Would be a nice touch if shampoo/conditioner were also provided :) Didn't realize the house was under renovation but that didn't bother me as it still had all the facilities I needed, just thought to mention as an FYI for anyone planning on booking.

Wonderful host, full of personality and genuinely wanting to spend time with her guests. Very comfortable bed and clean. Lovely home cooked 3 course dinner and plenty of options available for breakfast. Quiet countryside location with adorable dogs. Super helpful with giving me a lift back into the Hunua ranges area. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay thank you!!

No negatives for this listing.

Claire is a great host, we were greeted by their friendly little dogs. The couple has a real farm feel hospitality and are down to earth. Room is lovely and the bed was comfy with soft linen. Had some nostalgic chats about the good old days of show jumping. Really felt comfortable and at home. Actually missed staying here even if it was for one night... We will definitely return and stay few days next time...

The room was fine shower was clean. I had a good conversation with the owner and it was fun.

Generally food was provided for breakfast I didn't need other meals, I don't have any issues here.

All fine.

Very nice spot in the South of Auckland. Clare and Steve are kind and friendly hosts. The BnB is on farmland, very quite and in the middle of nature. They offered BBQ that was excellent. Around their home there is plenty to see.

Tasty breakfast - the homemade jam and marmalade were great. Very comfy room. Very friendly dogs.

Soap not rinsed off the dishes before serving food on them. Noise from driveway security beeping at night that was disturbing when nocturnal creatures walked in and out of the driveway area. I felt $10 for laundry charge was quite expensive. I could do it for $3-5 at the laundromat in Auckland.

Bedroom was beautifully presented with a nice view of rural countryside. Hostess prepared very nice meal for extra charge. Very clean bathroom with towels provided. Overall a great experience here.

Probably a better explanation of the correct driveway to take, although it didn't really hold me up at all. Many people will find the 9am checkout time a bit early, but I understand there is a bit of flexibility around that.

Beautiful location and a great sleep and rest just before tackling the difficult Auckland traffic. Breakfast was perfect for me. I usually have a light breakfast like this one.

We really enjoyed the very relaxed atmosphere and friendliness of the hosts. Our room was large and comfortable.

Calm and peaceful environment. Owners were very nice. Bedroom and bathroom was clean. The bed was comfy - slept very well. If you're undecided, go there - you won't regret it! You get a very good value for your money.

The breakfast was good, but would have been nice to have some fruit available.

The house was quiet, room was comfortable, and bathroom was clean. Lovely dogs there which I loved, and good conversation with the host over breakfast.
