My husband, 2 children (12 & 9 yrs.), & I stayed at the Kokiri Bed and Breakfast for our last 2 nights in New Zealand from 1- 3 April. Pat and Graham gave us a warm welcome and the accommodations were lovely. Freshly cut hydrangea were even put in the room for our arrival. The room had a separate ensuite, queen-sized bedroom and another room with a double sofa bed and twin bed and small kitchen area. The room had everything we needed from an alarm clock, shower gel, shampoo, creme rinse, and other incidentals. We were also served a nice continental breakfast each morning. They even provided us with a "breakfast-to-go" for the morning we departed at 4AM for the airport.

The location was also very good for us. We spent one day at the thermal pools in Hanmer Springs (about 1 hour away) and the other day touring the vineyards, Athena Oil Grove, and lavender fields - all within 5 - 20 minutes away. more
