New Zealand's best accommodation options and B&B owners, the environment is quiet and clean, the house is fully equipped, each household can park in the front yard, and the scenery outside the window is like a paradise. The most important thing is that the friendly greetings and care from the hosts make you feel like you are home. Just in time for Christmas, we also received a small gift from the owner, which was heartwarming.

We stayed for three nights in December 2025 and just loved it. Spacious, had everything we needed, easy access, on the edge of a nice park. What made it especially homely is that it is obviously used by the owners, so all their personal stuff added to the homely feel. If you're looking for modern sophistication this is not for you; it is after all a bach, but a bach with everything.

The location was serene and peaceful. Living in nature among animals and away from the busy town life in a well equipped and homely cottage made it for a perfect stay. Helen (the host) was lovely and assisted us with all our needs. We got to pet Rocky (the Horse) and feed Lindsay (the Alpaca). Hot tub under million stars was very dreamy and romantic. We got to see 5 shooting stars. We will definitely return and recommend it to our friends and family 😊

Very nicely furnished cottage with fireplace terrace grill kitchen and two bedrooms. There was also a separate entrance with a round place around the tree like in the English castle. The owner left a lot of details about restaurants and how to use everything.

Loved the beautiful property and scenery. The host was so friendly and looked after us well. She even took our daughter on a horse ride down to the river and back. The farm animals were great - especially the dog, who was a legend! The cottage was well-equipped and cosy with a fireplace. The views across the snow-capped mountains were next level good! The beds are warm and very comfortable.
