Our host was friendly and welcoming with helpful suggestions for dinner. We loved the peace and tranquility and the pleasant surroundings. The accommodation is very private even though it is on the same property as the host.

(Stayed in May, not Feb) Stunning spot! Loved all the birdlife - it was so relaxing sitting on the porch in the sunshine with the birds all around. Super special experience seeing a wild kiwi for the first time. The manager there was the best, and I had so much fun exploring the place with her looking for kiwi! (If you're reading this, I went for a wander to say bye to you but didn't spot you. Thank you for an awesome stay! <3 ) The cabin itself was really comfy, great wee kitchenette too, but the deck overlooking the wetlands was the highlight. I've found a new favourite holiday spot, will be back soon!

Very cute place with extra touches that you rarely see at Airbnb’s. There were noise machines by the beds if needed, mattress warmer, even Oral-B chargers in each of the bathrooms cupboard. Very nicely decorated by the owners. The patio was also a nice place to hang out with heaters and the jacuzzi. 2 parking spots available if needed; also provided laundry detergent, coffee, tea, creamer in the fridge. Would highly recommend the place to friends and family. Vielen Dank!
