Idyllic rural getaway

We were staying in the area to attend a family reunion and this cottage was perfect for us. 10 minutes from Papamoa where our event was based, it provided us a beatiful and peaceful setting to relax inbetween other activities. Beautiful spaces both inside and outside, it had everything we needed and more. would definitely recommend.
