We’re an ‘empty-nest’ couple with a large, comfortable home in Wellington’s northern suburb of Tawa, just 15 minutes from the city and, most importantly, 15 minutes from the Wellington Regional Stadium – Wellington’s rugby venue. We are not a ‘regular’ B&B but have decided to open our home during this special time for New Zealand and rugby!
