Such a lovely place to stay! Friendly and very helpful throughout our stay. Breakfast was wonderful. The accommodation complex was clean, tidy, cosy and modern. Loved the scenery and the quiet, listening to the tūīs in the morning was bliss! Noticed many surrounding walks and nearby zoos for anyone with families. Highly recommend to others! Will definitely be coming back! Thank you for your fantastic hospitality! 😁

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
- Late check-in and friendly staff. - Scenery is beautiful. - Location is lovely and quiet with lots of bird sounds. - Communal areas are nice and recently updated. - Room smelt musty coming in. - Wallpaper in suite was peeling off the walls a bit, looked tired. - Bathroom in suite was a bit old and outdated which unfortunately just makes it look a bit unclean as well (not what was shown in advertising pictures, new and updated appear to be communal) - Water pressure was very weak. - Most amenities are in communal areas rather than the room. Rooms are very basic. - Only 3 coat hangers and no where much to put any clothes.

Catch up in peace and quiet

Clear instructions on how to get there. Not the easiest place. Good details that you should eat before arriving or take a picnic as quite a way from shops etc. we had a very relaxing time and really enjoyed watching the bird life. Cooked breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious

Very nice BnB

We really enjoyed our stay here. Beautiful surroundings and scenery driving to and from the BnB. Feels like staying at someones house, but still you have your own “hotel room”. In the hallway you can fix a cup of coffe, tea or hot chocolate to bring upstairs to the lounge or to the room. Fresh linen, nice SPA shampoo, soap and a bouquet of flowers from the garden. When we stayed it was not so many staying at the same time so it was very quite and relaxing.
