Arbutus BnB is currently closed to all but family & good friends.
Management are eternally grateful to all who have visited and shared Kiwi hospitality.
Canine and feline residents Gus and Miss Molly may now choose their own space.....
Sincere thanks to all who have graced the door of number 12. Such a privilege for me to have shared in diverse cultures. All are welcome to return and I thank you for generous gestures of hospitality world wide.
According to the journalists I am in the ‘elder’ sector of life!!!
Pfft!!! For in my head I’m only 19 and will continue so until a vacancy occurs to challenge St Peter!
Bless you all for enriching my life.

These simple scones have been dressed up for Easter with the addition of rum-soaked fruits combined with a mix of heady spices.
