"Very smart property. Room was well appointed with good lighting and was spotlessly clean. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Dinner was excellent. The only very minor niggle was the very slow breakfast service - a bit short staffed we suspect. We will definitely stay again."

10/10 Excellent
"This property is on a real working farm in New Zealand, with happy contented cows watching you come and go. We were treated to in-house preserves of jam, and a lovely welcome. It was especially helpful that this accommodation was a short drive from the Hobbotin movie set, which we had visited earlier that day. So we reached our destination on the winding country road before it got dark; very convenient. We were 2 adults but would definitely recommend this spacious accommodation for families."
