Fantastic family home in superb New Plymouth location
Our family visits New Plymouth often to visit family and we were so stoked to find this place to stay. Awesome location so close to town, the coastal walk way, Paritutu Rock, Iona dairy for giant icrcreams etc. Lovely place to stay and the kids appreciated the toys, swinging chair and massage chair! We would love to come back again.

Our piece of paradise!
This house was beautiful and all modern facilities. We were down for the Taranaki womens 4s so was ideal for the greens. Would suggest looking at the head of the shower, other than that a 10+ from us all.

Lovely property, great location, toys and games for the kids, dvds and books also available. Across the road from a park which the kids loved. Nice to have an air conditioner as it was so hot while we were there. Dishwasher was also a bonus.

Fun and relaxing time in New Plymouth
We came from the states to visit our son and grandson. They live in Whangarei and we wanted to explore the West side of the island. New Plymouth was fun! The walks along the ocean were beautiful! We went to he museum and played mini golf twice! Our 9 year old grandson has a blast! The cottage was great! It had everything we needed and the sleeping was great! Thank you for helping our stay be delightful! ~Claudia and Brian from Merlin, Oregon USA
