We already stayed there the second time in our "one month travel". We love it there! Time out in nature, take a break with no noise at all in a very nice, little cabin which has almost everthing you need - exept the bathroom. Take a little walk there and at night with a beautiful sky full of stars.

This little oasis was our favourite accommodation of our trip. We had everything we needed and loved the chickens and doggo! Access to the BBQ meant we were able to prepare our own meals and our little cabin was the cutest. We took so many pictures because everywhere you look there is something neat that catches your eye.

Awesome and very clean cabin. It's small but you have everthing inside you need. It's in the middle of nowhere. Very quiet. Had to walk bout 1-2 min to get to the shower and toilet (also very clean!), but that didn't bother at all. It's just a very relaxed stay with no noises but bird singing. The hosts are very welcoming and friendly. In the first evening here we already booked our second stay here for the perfect end of our holidays. Not to forget Mojo - the hugest and most friendly dog in New Zealand, who comes every morning for a visit :) We recommend this accomodation very much!

The location is amazing for getting away from it all. Waking up and sitting on the deck with a coffee was a wonderful way to start the day. The bed was so comfortable! And it was great to have the fridge, microwave and kettle. The real milk in the fridge was much appreciated! The toilet and shower block up by the house are excellent. Everything was really clean and welcoming. We would have loved to have spent more time at the cabin while we were there. The owners and large dog are lovely.. thank you for sharing your home with us.

Charlotte and Simon were amazing hosts and could not have done more us. Wonderfully quiet location and very good facilities.

it was private and fresh. being surrounded by nature was really refreshing.

Amazing property with great gardens set in a natural bush setting and waking to the birds. Very peaceful. The proprietors couldn't be more helpful.

The comfort and adventure of sharing, giving the feeling of outdoor camping with the comfort of knowing you have a safe, comfortable retreat if needed.

He had no breakfast. But there was an option of having a hot drink in the morning and some breakfast. Also there was a fridge

The hidden out of the way location very nice ,fish and chips yum
