Cute little farm stay
We stayed here for a night along our road trip around NZ and we loved it! Super cute little place. Both my husband and I found the bed to be comfortable, and the house was very cozy and welcoming. There was adequate cooking supplies in the kitchen for us to cook breakfast as well. The only thing that had us wary at first was check in as no instructions were provided prior to our stay through the app but we just called the host number provided and were told how to access the property. It was seamless! We would definitely stay here again.

Clean, beautiful and the perfect stay for our little family. The Host was easily contactable for any issues too. It’s a perfect stay! Just be prepared there is a very small fridge so can’t store too much:) Thank you for the amazing stay we got to a lovely home away from home here!

Wonderful, quiet retreat
We stayed for 26 nights. Easy check in and check out. Clean, modern and comfortable accommodation located on beautiful farmland with fantastic views of the snow-capped mountains. Great heating and cooling and always nice and warm despite the very cool temperature outside. Cows and sheep roam the paddocks nearby. Timaru, Geraldine and surrounding suburbs are an easy drive away. Great location for drives to Mount Cook, Dunedin, Lake Tekapo, Ashburton, Christchurch etc. Very comfortable bed and very fast WiFi. Graham is a terrific, friendly host. He was there to greet us on arrival and to say goodbye on our departure. He was only a phone call away if anything was needed and he was very responsive. After almost a month it felt like home and we were reluctant to finally leave. We would definitely stay there again. Thanks Graham.

Easy family time away, lovely spot
Clean, modern, warm, lovely view of horizon, and farm environment with fresh country air everytime you step outside. Cows were curious and fun for the kids. Friendly owner. Very easy booking and arrival. Private. Nice to be able to eat out on the deck. Overall a great spot, a short drive to lovely surrounding areas. I would recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay in this, peaceful rural location. The place was spotless and a good size for a couple. We enjoyed sitting on the deck, looking our over padocks to the hills.

The property was spotless, it was warm, there was plenty of hot water, very relaxing and being where it was was very quiet and peaceful. We will definitely be recommending to others and will hopefully come again.

Great hosts, busy with their farming lifestyle, genuinely intereeted in how to make our stay the best experience. Expedia noted that this farmstay is adults only but this is not the case. Our grand daughter would have loved it.

Prefect, little property close enough to town but tucked away on farm land. The nook was exactly as represented and met our need nicely.
