Reviewed By Dairyflatters - Mairangi Bay, New Zealand
We were a collection of friends in town to do the Lost Highway Rail Trail & stay in town for 3 nights. When asking locals what to do, Bradley's was recommended every time. We were treated exceptionally, ordered the Devonshire Tea the day before (as is the instruction), toured the lovely gardens, played Mini Putt to shrieks of laughter & had a fab time. Seriously recommended.
