Waking up to misty mountains in the distance was a way to start to the day. The animal friends in the yard was a bonus. It’s a cute, quiet place which allows you to relax and enjoy the world around you.

The outlook from our room was sheets on the washing line. The property manager attacked the alpacas with a broom. He saw me watching but carried on. Lots of flies. They were immune to the fly spray. Very dirty under the microwave and behind the TV. No cloths or bath mat provided

Amazing stay! The accommodations were clean and comfortable. There isn’t reception but check in was clear and easy. We had some nice bites ready for our breakfast. If you like animals, there are lots to see around the property. The host was helpful and friendly. We had a great stay and would definitely come back again. Highly recommend!

This was a short, two night, stay. Check in was very simple, the room was exactly as described. We loved the homely atmosphere with a beautiful view over farmland. There was everything we needed for an enjoyable stay and most importantly, a very comfortable bed.

The apartment was located on a farm. We woke up to alpaca outside our room and the view was lovely. The room was comfortable and the host was gracious. Our only issue was the lack of reliable wifi. It was hit and miss.

I was surprised by the amount of farm animals at the property but they were all lovely to interact with. Theres an alpaca there who will give you a kiss but be careful he will also nibble you if you allow it.

In general on first appearances the property and location seemed fine - a farm stay was what i expected. As i initially parked a man came out and in broken English pointed to a sign on left door of the property which had my name written on a strip of lined paper. You have to move your car and park in front of door. After i had manouvered the car he showed me into the room and where he had left the key. The furnishings were nice, no kitchenette and the bathroom was that and storage ironing board. In the main room there was a sideboard unit with cereals and coffee/tea and sugar all in containers. In the fridge there was milk, and in sealed boxes 2 yogurts and 4 slices of bread. In another there was butter and conserves. The expedia advertising had mentioned continental breakfast to be served with a selection of pastries. So i was expecting a breakfast that was hosted, not a make it yourself with what we provide! I then noticed inside the jar of granola INSECTS roaming around. Non of the containers had been wiped or cleaned or it seemed not to have been checked for freshness of cereals. The bathroom sink was not clean. An ingrained circle around the plug hole showed lack of care. There was long dark hairs all over one soft chair. The front door blind was very stiff and was fraying and needed attention. The alpacas were lovely neighbours, living next to the property in the owners garden. I enjoyed watching them.The outside space was uninviting. No contact with hosts!

Lovely place, maybe a bit dated but we liked it. Alpacas in the garden a bonus.

We spent just one night on this property and loved it! It was calm, serene, clean and had all the basic amenities. The animals on the property are adorable, especially the Alpacas! The host is extremely courteous and helpful. He helped us store our bags on the property before and after check in, so we are very grateful for that. The only inconvenience was that that the room was extremely cold (we visited in July, which is winter in New Zealand). The host advised us to put the AC on heating mode and while we did that on the highest temperature possible, the room did not heat up much. So I am guessing the insulation is not great. However, this will not be an issue over the summer months, which is NZ's main tourist season. Overall, I highly recommend the property and would love to go back again!
