    I recall the webpage mentioning a shuttle, which was the deciding factor for us to choose this place. It might have been a glitch or mistake, but there's no shuttle offered for this place.

    The location was breathtaking, albeit too far from the airport, which is where we came from. Klaus was super hospitable with explanations, showing around, offering a ride to the nearby supermarket, making a wonderful breakfast, and making our stay feel as comfortable as possible. He gave good tips about the area and in general, and was overall a wonderful host.

    Fernglen is a stunning location, with very comfortable, lovely, and quiet rooms. Vera and Klaus are such welcoming hosts, they went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed to be comfortable and to make my stay in Auckland memorable. They even helped me with transportation and logistics each day. Their beautiful home is a very special place!

    Perfect breakfast every morning, really delicious. Best couple host ever! I really enjoyed my stay there. They were super nice to me and even offered me free ride several times because I was traveling alone. I got a lot of help from them. Really appreciate it and would like to recommend this place to friends. It’s near Auckland but very quiet and the sunset was amazing!

    I can't rate this place highly enough! The host (I only got to meet Vera as Klaus was away) was so welcoming, warm and easy to talk with, extremely knowledgeable on many subjects and in particular NZ tourism/geography. The breakfasts were amazing and her attention to detail was superb. The house was exceptionally clean and the bed was super comfy. Everything is provided and they really have thought of every single little thing. The views from the house are stunning and the gardens are very well kept. But best of all I was able to take my 2 borrder collies with me! Vera is brilliant with doggos! I honestly cant recommend this B&B enough, it was a true home away from home!!

    Everything about our stay was enjoyable. It's a beautiful property - well-maintained, modern and tranquil. The location is fab (beautiful forests and ocean views), and the hospitality is excellent (welcoming and engaging). We felt perfectly pampered.

    Stairs to the house were difficult with heavier baggage. Parking steep, but manageable.

    Outstanding breakfast!! Very comfortable enclosed patio/aborium. Welcoming hot tea and drinks after a very long day. Ambient music and candles. Very inviting and special. Perfect for a much needed wind-down! Excellent location. Fernglen Reserve is a “must see” within very short walking distance for perfect stroll and information on local plant habitat.

    Shared vs private bathroom. The large shower and bath room could use a toilet.

    Beautiful renovated house with wonderful views. Very comfortable bedroom and lovely sitting areas, inside and out. Nice walks from the property (although some very steep hills) and close to Auckland.

    Steep driveway that could frighten some people, including me initially. However, once done, the fear was conquered.

    Centrally located, close to the CBD, yet quiet amidst native bush. Picturesque views. Klaus is the perfect host and cooks a great breakfast.
