Outstanding Hospitality
We had a whirlwind trip to Hawera for the Garden Festival. Kelly and Christina’s home was a not only in the perfect location, but it could have been an entrant in the garden festival, a beautiful setting, stunning home. Clean and welcoming! The attention to detail was next level with little treats available to top it off ! Can’t recommend highly enough !

MacArthur Park
Our decision to get away to Hawera was made late, but we booked and were confirmed in just minutes. I thought the House seemed a very good deal on paper, but upon arrival it just got even better. Christina and Kelly were very welcoming and friendly, they showed us around and made sure we had everything we needed. The house is beautiful and very well kept, very clean, quiet, comfortable and warm. Easy parking as well. The super king size bed is very comfortable. Plenty of snacks and food available if you need it. Ten out of ten experience and a very comfortable couple of nights.

Perfect stay - wish we'd stayed longer
Everything about this stay was lovely. The beds were comfortable, it was easy to find, location was convenient for us, property was gorgeous, views were stunning, quiet area, and PHENOMENAL (can't underscore that enough) hosts. They were so welcoming, kind, and respectful. They shared their property and sheep with us and let us feed them bread, but gave us privacy as well. It was perfect. We truly wish we didn't have somewhere else to be the next night so we could stay longer.

Excellent Views and hospitality
We felt right at home - the warm greeting on arrival to the special touches to make us welcome, let alone the ample continental breakfast supplies- my brother and I loved it. And then Mt Taranaki emerged from clouds - so close- and we were mesmerised. Thankyou for your hospitality!

Wonderful bed and breakfast
Two bedrooms, kitchenette, bathroom, separate WC, and large living room. Plenty of space to spread out. The master bedroom is enormous. The beds are very comfortable. The kitchenette has microwave, fridge, toaster, kettle, and a great view of Mt Taranaki. Our hosts were very welcoming. The continental breakfast was great. The baby grand piano in the living room was a great bonus for us. Conveniently located on the northern edge of town, close to the Tawhiti Museum. Hāwera is small enough that nothing is too far away. Great location for a holiday in Taranaki.

Lovely spot
A great little B&B with fantastic views of Mt Taranaki. Although the accomodation is part of the main house it is private and self contained. Rooms were cleaned every day and breakfast supplies replenished. A lovely place to stay for exploring Taranaki.
