"Unique location with views over the Bay, very responsive and hospitable hosts, and a selection of great books which were appreciated on a wet day"

"Loved it here. Such a lovely spot - cabin very cosy and loved the gardens"

"Spotless and extremely well equipped this is a lovely self contained house at the bottom of Linda’s garden. Definitely 5* Linda’s has thought of everything. Quiet and perfectly positioned to explore the Bay of Islands area. Linda was very attentive to our needs but not in the slightest intrusive. Highly recommended with lovely walks into town and around the area in the bush and by the river."

"Very lovely stay. Spa was lovely and batch had everything we needed. Thank you"

"Fabulous views. Very clean. Had everything we needed. Has had a makeover since photos were taken and is much nicer than in photos. Loved having the swimming at the end of the drive and being in such a quiet space. Watching the boats all day was so relaxing and fun. Would love to go back. "

"Lovely house, well situated, beautiful views. Comfy beds, great showers. Provided everything we needed. However, lower bedroom still has damp musty smell and we had no wifi and no Netflix as modem had failed and needed replacing. Property manager responded immediately to internet problem and replacement arranged. Read comments about noise from ferry wharf but we did not find this intrusive."

"We had a wonderful time in Paihia and especially at Koru Cottage … the location was ideal; walking distance to all the activities; adorable cottage which was well appointed, with spacious deck and backyard. It had everything we needed !!!Definitely recommend the property …Robert "

"My little chalet was ideal for me. There is one of the stages at the beginning for the driveway so that was perfect for my start to do the Okiato loop. Shame the sun doesn’t penetrate the chalet until later in the day, likely the trees in the front obscure the sun and view of the sea. It’s a tranquil place, one can be as active as they want to be swimming, kayaking if you want. "
