Cute Norwegian Forest Kitten

The space
Entire upstairs loft area of the villa which includes 2 double beds so if a couple take your choice. If 2 singles then a bed each. It is cosy and private and easy to heat. I have an additional downstairs bedroom so can in some circumstances take parties of 4-5 people. Not always available so ask in advance.

The stairs to the loft are quite steep so care is needed - I will carry heavy bags up and down for you. Also please ask if steep stairs are a problem as I have a spare bedroom on the ground floor next to the bathroom that maybe available

Guest access
Also included is use of a lovely bathroom with shower, bath, toilet and double vanity. Also welcome to use the outdoor area as pictured, dining room, lounge and kitchen except for cooking in the evening (I may consider cooking in evening so please ask).
Ask for Netflix username - password is Frances123& NEON is Ruapehu1

During your stay
I work from home so available to offer any assistance required.

Other things to note
We keep bees which are away from living areas but if interested happy to show you the hives. Their honey is used for the homemade granola and is available for toast as well. Our linen is top quality but occasionally the bees flight path means small amounts of pollen on our beautiful white sheets. Rest assured the sheets are spotlessly clean otherwise.
I can if the times suit do pickup or dropoffs at the airport - cost $50 which is cheaper than Uber

Where you’ll be

Auckland, New Zealand

Ponsonby is the most interesting and funkiest parts of Auckland. It is very close to the city and waterfront. It is vibrant with lots of fantastic cafes, restaurants and night-life plus fantastic shopping, local parks, walks, beaches etc - all within easy walking distance. We've lived here for 15 years and can't think of anywhere better in Auckland - this is reflected in the local house prices.
