to get started.

Super nice host! She is doing a business in the pretty desolate town of Ohura, and possibly bringing this town back to life.

Lovely little place only a stone's throw from everywhere. The owner was lovely and looked after us, said hello every time we walked past, and always introduced us to the locals that where about.

Christopher

Lovely B&B in older house. The owner is upgrading the place gradually. The hosts were very friendly. Great scones and Mexican food available. There were lots of electrical plugs for all our electronic needs! Very good lighting in the room too. Access to the kitchen was very appreciated.

Michelle is a great host and we applaud her enthusiasism for the Ohura area. Would definitely recommend people to stay here rather than at Taumaranui. Much more old style, rural New Zealand.

Robyn

New Zealand

Liked everything about Ohura and our accommodation which is an older-style cottage with furnishings in keeping with its style. The beds were very comfortable. Location was perfect for starting our cycling holiday via the Forgotten Highway to New Plymouth, and return to Ohura while Michelle and Nigel looked after our vehicles. The food freshly cooked and presented by Michelle would have won Masterchef twice over! (Photos: the amazing cheesecake and cherry pudding, and our breakfast scrambled eggs). Being able to eat al fresco for dinner and breakfast and share experiences with our host and other locals was something we will treasure for a long time. This place really is a hidden gem and worth a visit even just for the coffee!

The cottage wAs cute & had everything we needed & a very comfortable bed. The best thing was the owners especially Michelle so lovely & friendly with a very cute caravan where she does tasty Mexican food & fab home baking. A lovely couple, enjoyed meeting them.

Don't think there was anything to improve upon, bearing in mind the accommodation is in an older-style house which took us back in time and is not expensive.

Advertised as one level. There were steps to get into the cottage. I have a disability which means steps are an absolute no no. The owners husband did a great temporary arrangement which was appreciated.

Our bedroom door squeaked loudly, so woke me every time it was opened. The toilet was nearby & also had a loud flush - there were 4 guests in house all getting up during the night - it woke me every time. A shame there was all the noise created when it was such a quiet rural setting. A bedside table would have been helpful. There was nowhere to put a toilet bag in bathroom & as it was being used by 4 people I couldn't leave anything in bathroom.
Michelle went out of her way to meet my specific dietary requirements. Bed comfortable.
