    It was very convenient especially with the complimentary breakfast and the proximity to town. Full use of kitchen and laundry facilities was very handy.

Two days is never enough in Whanganui! Although this is a home-share property guests should never feel like they are imposing. I've been doing this for years and welcoming guests into my home is never a problem. If you want to get up at 2am and watch TV or make a cup of tea... just do it! It will never bother me. So come and share my home with me... you’ll love it because of it's modern, 'New York apartment' feel and it's in pristine condition. Warm, sunny & close to everything. Happy to share a wine or just as happy to let you relax by yourselves. Beautiful Kowhai Park is just across the road if you fancy a walk along the river. Off-street parking. Check-in/out times flexible. Free continental breakfast. This is a good sized room with a really comfortable queen sized bed. There is a TV in the room and a small wall heater and electric blanket for heating. Feel free to make yourself at home and enjoy the lounge area or great deck area outside.
I'm a professional person that likes to meet new people and keeps the place clean and tidy for guests. I'm looking forward to sharing my home with you. Happy to share a wine and a few words or just as happy to leave you to yourself. I'm interested in democracy, politics, business, technology, journalism, investment, bridge (card game) and horse racing.
We have a great selection of restaurants in Whanganui and I know most of them. The property is on a main road and for very light sleepers that might be a problem but most people will not be bothered by it. The museum and art gallery are close by in town. Kowhai Park is straight across the road. Don't miss the River Traders market every Saturday morning down by the city bridge. You really should do a Waimarie paddle steamer trip while you are here!
