"Really nice property and was bigger then we anticipated. "

"What a lovely house to stay with our children & friends in for our wedding. Rooms were spacious, especially kitchen/living/dining and conservatory. It had everything you could need and more. Added bonus of a laundry if you would need one. Lovely deck space with bbq and fantastic lawn area out back if needed for the doggos.The hosts were absolutely amazing, so fast in communication and attending to my questions etc. Couldn't recommend enough and would definitely stay again!"

"Charming family-owned country motel! Super clean rooms, friendly service, and a cozy atmosphere. Loved the thoughtful touch of free bread and milk—perfect for a simple breakfast. Great value and a peaceful stay. Highly recommend!"

"Old hotel built in 1880s, large rooms, warm and with character in need of some redecorating but good value for price "

"Clean, great shower, walking distance to restaurants and shops."

"We stayed with Marianne and Pascal for two nights during our month-long trip around New Zealand, and Cricklewood was by far our family’s favourite place to stay.Marianne and Pascal have created a true sanctuary where you can slow down and enjoy the simplicity of farm life while still having all the comforts of the modern world. It has the perfect balance between retreat and connection. You can unwind, recharge, and immerse yourself in nature, surrounded by beautiful farm animals that bring such charm to the experience. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, making the stay feel both peaceful and welcoming.We travelled with our three young children, who were endlessly curious about the animals. Pascal graciously answered their many questions and even took them around the paddocks to explain different parts of the farm. Marianne welcomed us with the most delicious spiced mulled wine. It was an unforgettable experience feeding baby lambs, collecting eggs, patting the horses, walking the alpacas, and simply enjoying the magic of life on the farm.Evenings were spent soaking in the hot tub as a family and gazing up at skies filled with the brightest stars we’ve ever seen. My children now dream of having a farm of their own!Cricklewood is truly special, and we cannot recommend this farm stay highly enough."

"Lovely, warm, very clean accommodation. "

"The location of this home is fantastic, up on a hillside with views all around. Everything about our stay was fantastic. We felt so welcome and cozy and loved the locally made lavender products and the delicious breakfast. We even did a wee bit of shopping at the onsite lavender shop - it smelled heavenly in there! Thank you!"

"We were lucky to arrive as the hotel was nearly shutting for the night, the duty manager was very welcoming. Rooms were very spacious with entrances to the courtyard as well."
