I live with my son in a sunny house in Epsom near the heart of Auckland City. We are conveniently located within walking distance of both Central City attractions as well as beautiful nature reserves and buzzing gourmet farmers markets (weekend events). If you happen to prefer a more effortless approach, the most popular bus routes and the Newmarket train station are just up the road.
Our pad is humble in its furnishings but we keep it clean and tidy and we love making our hosts feel welcome and looked after!
We regularly light our little charcoal bbq to share sunny outdoor afternoons during warm weather and a cosy open fire makes a great setting for warming up in the chilly winter evenings!
There is internet and laundry facilities but no TV.

Lisa and Hannah really enjoyed their stay. They reported that all was clean and tidy and that you were very friendly and hospitable. They were thankful that your home was so centrally located too. Thank you very much for your care and hospitality. I also appreciated you clear and prompt communication.

How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) using a choice of payment methods: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal (not available in certain countries). You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
