This big and comfy property is located in Helensville Auckland. The huge 5 and a half hectares land will ensure that you are able to enjoy your peaceful holiday in a quiet and uninterrupted environment.

We really enjoyed staying here. Jane and her cleaners were amazing.. Easy, fast communication and extremely accommodating last minute. The home is spacious and we all loved having our separate bathrooms and spaces. The kids loved the pool so much. Everything was clean and extremely easy to follow instructions. Highly recommend this home A++
Thanks

This place suited us as only 8kms to reunion base and 12kms to Woodhill forest where family did tree walks.
4.6
We thoroughly enjoyed our comfortable stay at this beautiful home. Ofc the pool was our first attraction, but for the kids we had with us there was lots of room to run around and animals to look at.
Our stay was too short too be honest but we felt very much welcomed by our house manager who was great at communication.
4.6
Great spacious accommodation for large groups or families, but beware you pay per person although advertised as ‘sleeps 10’ . Rather dated and only accommodation I have been to that doesn’t supply towels ! These cost extra .
Excellent communication from owner Jane .

Had a great break away with friends.
After paying, there were conditions to agree to before we could get the key. We didn’t like this, it was too late to cancel. But the conditions were fair, just prefer to know the conditions in advance so we can decide if the place is right.
There was a bbq, but it wasn’t good. Too much rust on the grills. We didn’t use it.
The fireplace was AMAZING. We bought a box of wood and a box of kindling for about $28. It kept us warm for 2 days with some leftovers.
Gas cookers are GREAT! And those steel benches were so nice, easy to clean.

Spacious house
Great space and location. Having the pool was good. A few minor issues (lack of tin opener/ plug/ oven dishes/ TV reception) considering the price.
4.6
Nice big house. Could do with a bit more homely feel to it. The only slight issue was that you cannot jump into the pool to avoid water level dropping and filter being damaged. Other than that, the pool was lovely on a hot summer day and the overall stay was good.

We enjoyed the size, location and views the property had. Well laid out and clean. Unfortunately we were not assisted with getting in slightly earlier 30 mins or so even though we explained we had a baby in our group. The grass had not been cut for a while so was quite long. The pool is over salted but clean. House inside was very clean though. Curtains need a little detailing as some hooks were hanging off. Our check out time was 11am and the owners arrived at 11.10 am and became quite offensive that we were still there, just clearing the bins and last few bag from the kitchen. The male owner became quite agitated and bumped our 5 year old grandson right off his feet in the doorway from the entrance hall to the 1st bedroom. We had used the bbq, which had not been cleaned from the previous visitors, but dutifully cleaned it and returned it to the back. It’s a pity that a lovely stay was marred by a thoughtless owner. At the lunch later many of the guests that had stayed at other venues had been made welcome and accommodated to stay on later without being pushed out on the precise minute. Maybe just a couple of thoughts for the owners.

Jane is such a host, and the prompt response from her is just amazing. The property is beyond explanation. My family enjoyed our 2020 Christmas. Lovely views from all parts of the house, to top it all off, salt water swimming pool. Brought the ocean to to us instead of driving all the way to the beach and back. My family really love this Bach and wish to return. Thank you Jane.

Helensville
The property was clean and tidy and suited us as it was located not too far away from our daughter. We took our own towels but didn't realise we needed tee towels and bath mats. When you are flying to Auckland it is hard to bring all those things with you as it adds to your luggage. Shower in the shub bath was very hot and we didn't use it. We couldn't regulate it any cooler. Showers in the other bathrooms were fine. No tea or coffee so take your own.

Working away from home
The property is lovely with wonderful country views. Jane was extremely nice to deal with and was happy to help us in any way to accomodate our needs. She is a lovely person and we would happily use this property again.
Thanks Jane
