Highly recommend staying at Paroa Hotel!!!
Pros:

Bernie is the best host!! Fingers on all the pulses & is always smiling & joking :) Bed was extremely comfortable & the room was spot on clean! Shower pressure great! Restaurant on site - food was exceptional - my partner actually got a 'rare steak' which many restaurants struggle doing & the whitebait patties were packed & yummy! - value for money & alot! Being able to choose your salads from the salad bar & the amount that suited you was like going back in time lol Overall experience was top notch & we are definitely planning another trip that way just so we can go back there!! Highly recommend the Paroa Hotel!!!!

Cons:

Found nothing to complain about!!!

Great holiday home in a great location just out of town with a great pub and lovely hosts
Pros:

The large 3 bedroom home was massive in size and had a lovely little courtyard. The beds were comfy and the layout great.

Cons:

If you are looking for a flash modern stay, this wouldn’t be your pick, it just has a warm homely feel.
