What a lovely stay with great hosts! With a robust cooked breakfast and some great local walking tracks, Twin Plams was perfect. Add in a comfy bed and super hosts and you have the recipe for a relaxing weekend.Thankyou for having us!!
Lovely location, decorated beautifully, warm welcoming hosts, incredible views (both the vista and the stars from the hot tub!), will stay again in a heartbeat!!
Kevin and Kath are excellent hosts.They make you feel really welcome.Lots to see in this area beaches are pristine and the whole landscape is beautiful.We would definitely would come here again.
We were so pleased to be able to bring our little furry friends with us on this trip. They absolutely loved the beach walks and exploring the rural setting around the studio. Kathryn and Kevin gave us a warm welcome and then pretty much left us to it. The spa pool was an added bonus to relax in. We would definitely recommend this accommodation and hope to stay again one day.
Wonderful for time out, beautiful views and birdsong
As the title indicates, this was a wonderful, opportunity to replenish spiritually and emotionally.
We were fortunate with good weather, but the views would have been sensational whatever the weather, and the quietness and beauty gave 100% restoration, even within a 24 hour period.
There’s a reason why Kathryn and Kevin are rated as exceptional hosts, that’s because that is exactly what they are…lovely genuine people who really make you feel welcome. The setting looks exactly like the photos, my partner and I felt so relaxed as soon as we arrived. I highly recommend staying at Twin Palms and look forward to returning soon 😊
A warm welcome from Kevin and the dogs on arrival. A lovely clean, beautifully decorated accomodation. All necessary equipment to cook and some basic pantry items provided. Fresh milk which we loved(not uht) and some yummy cereal. The spa was fabulous and views perfect. We had a real nice peaceful stay which was what we were looking for. Finished off with a 2 minute drive to ocean beach before heading off. Fabulous property, fabulous hosts.
Great 2 days walking . Hot spa to watch the stars . Great hosts and accommodation .
