"lovely little cottage with everything that a couple could need for a getaway. The local pub was a bonus for some yummy cheap meals but with all of the fantastic facilities in the cottage, there is no need to go out if you don't want to. The special touches such as the home stewed plums for breakfast were lovely touch. would definitely recommend this spot to others."

"Took to long for a reply with details to arrive after money paid.Accommodation needed cleaning especially getting rid of cluster flys.Super comfortable beds. Warm sunny house with great view."

"Loved my first stay at the cottage. So close to the city yet far enough away to feel you’d escaped the rat race. Had everything I needed and very comfortable (especially the bed ) and very friendly and responsive host without intruding into privacy. I’ll be back and recommended. "

"Such a great stay- loved the little trailer "

"An enchanting property for those seeking peace and tranquility, with a beautiful garden to explore amongst mature trees. We wish we’d had more time to appreciate all this and will aim to return and stay longer next time. Thank you Penny, for making us feel welcome and for being available during our stay. All the best, from Ngaire, Jane and Saffie "

"Lovely fellow guest gave us coffee and milk and sugar. Thanks Jessica! Staff were lovely too."

"Great location, close enough to dip into Chch if wanted, but perfectly positioned to enjoy all North Canterbury has to offer, with wineries, rivers and beaches, a stones through away. Positioned in the heart of a friendly community with plenty of Cafe and dinning options within walking distance. Loved the private deck and backyard along with the bonus of the pool table for some friendly family competition. Highly recommend - great character!"

"Lovely quite area, very peaceful."
