The location is ideal for a hike to Mair Park and beyond to the Kauri Park, or to the Subtropical Quarry Park and the Arts Quarry - you don't need a car to get there. The New World supermarket is just up the street (but expensive). If you don't mind to walk ten minutes, you can even get to the... More
