Thank you so much Alyson & Tim for such a magical stay. This sweet little bed & breakfast was beautifully positioned on such an idyllic farm with an incredible backdrop to gaze out upon. The bed was super comfortable, and bathroom facilities perfect. Beautiful short car ride to both Hobbiton, Wairere Falls and into the MataMata township. We’ll most certainly be back. Thank you xx

The main point of our trip was to visit Hobbiton Movie Set. This is an amazing experience, our second trip. Have done both the lunch & dinner experience. Food, staff & experience rate a 10. Had a great meal at Sofra, food & staff were great. Breakfast at The Rich Coffee Cafe was nice and the staff were ok. Visited the I-Centre too and found the staff to be helpful.

Glenn and Mark were excellent hosts and really did everything to make sure our stay was comfortable. The room itself is so beautiful and has all the amenities you could need. We loved the homemade cookies left in the room and the delicious breakfast pancakes. The location was just stunning, and we got to see the calves and feed the sheep and goat! Perfect distance for a quick drive into Matamata. We only wish we could have stayed longer!
