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!"

"Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us for two nights — it was truly a special experience. We’re so grateful for your hospitality and the chance to enjoy the peaceful surroundings of your farm.The farm tour was one of the highlights of our trip. Feeling the energy of all the animals and being immersed in nature was incredibly grounding and inspiring. We especially appreciated learning about how you work with the horses — your approach reminded us how important it is to treat others with more kindness, patience, and understanding. It left a lasting impression on us.This stay was truly the highlight of our New Zealand trip. Thank you again for everything, and we wish you and your family all the very best in the future."
