  Description

  Hello and welcome!
  
  We’re a young, friendly married couple with an adorable English springer spaniel puppy, living in a beautiful spot right by a river in Gisborne city. We’re in the process of transforming our property through landscaping and house painting, and we’d love some extra hands to help bring our vision to life!
  
  Staying with us means you'll not only be part of our project but also have the chance to explore the best of what Gisborne has to offer. With its stunning beaches, fantastic hunting and fishing spots, scenic walking tracks, and rich cultural experiences, there’s always something to enjoy. We’re excited to share our home, our work, and our love for this amazing region with you!
