End of school adeventure with the boys

Very good place for a large group of us to hang out, decent size front lawn to kick a ball around, large living room and decent sized table. Enough bedrooms and toilets for the whole group. Litchen was a little small but we managed if we cooked in small groups.

Lovely Rural retreat

The house was a great size for our family group and it is a lovely setting with rural views. The location was also good with easy access to Hot Water Beach, Hahei and Whitianga. The beds were all comfortable with nice linen.The bathrooms are a little tired, but adequate and the decks could do with some work.Even though the weather wasn't great while we were there we had a good time and would stay here again. Thank you.

Friendly Farm

We enjoyed our stay at the property, picking a variety of fruits to sample, visiting with sheep, enjoying the quiet. The home is certainly older and could use some maintenance (outside deck and a few other areas) but is spacious for a large group. The beds were comfy with clean crisp bedding, the kitchen is very well stocked and the breville coffee maker was definitely a hit. The owner was great to communicate with and answered questions quickly.

Perfect location for a choice of activities

This was a well equipped home within 20 minutes of plenty of attractions. Brilliant for a larger family or two with an exiting farm next door where we were lucky enough to see a calf being born. Quite surroundings. Would definitely recommend this place for anyone with their own transport as it is not within walking distance to any beach or activity. That however was a plus for us. Owner is delightful to deal with.

We stayed for just 2 nights with our extended family. The house was plenty big enough and had all the amenities we needed. The beds were firm and comfortable. The gardens were huge and beautiful. We spent a few hours chasing around with Nerf guns, with even the youngest, at 3, joining in. The only worry we had was the balconey, which seemed unstable and a bit around the back of the property which had a drop down to the next level. Overall, we had a great time. It was central to where we wanted to be and although some of it was a little dated, the kitchen was lovely and modern. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the place to stay.

Lots of Space

Plenty of space with five bedrooms, lounge, dining and sunroom, and a front lawn and garden area. Good kitchen area, oven, expresso machine, amenities, etc, instructions avail for everything. BBQ needed a good clean prior to use, outdoor furniture lacking, some deck areas unavailable and/or required work. Good, easy communication with owner, quick answers to any queries.

The house is old, however it was not a problem, but the bathroom service was insufficient.In addition, there were lots of bugs on the lower floor, it’s also important to mention that the smell of humidity was high.The best part of the house was the kitchen which is very complete with a variety of utensils. To sum up, the price was VERY high for the poor condition of the house.

Sorry the house was not to your satisfaction. Re the smell, the house had been locked up before you arrived, we cleaned (over 6 hours) before we left (10 days before) but unfortunately bugs get in and die. Re price you had 9 people and a dog (which we charge $100 for due to the increase likelihood of damage) for 3 days the total was $1540, The total cost was just over $53 per person per day, which included sheets and towels. VBRO charged $366 so we received $1173. Somehow your party stained a set of sheets which we had to replace as the stain would not wash out, we also have electricity and linen washing costs, These are all costs the price you pay needs to cover, I do not think the price was VERY high you could not have stayed in a hostel dorm for what you paid, while you had a 5 bedroom house.

Great rural/beach escape

The host was really clear with the expectations and we had a wonderful time in his house. The house was perfect for two families with kids. Close enough to Hahei, hot water beach and cathedral cove. House was comfortable and had everything that we needed. Lovely and spacious. Host was always contactable. We will definitely be back, thank you!!

Home Away from Home

Too short...much regrets, should've booked longer, as the host, neighbour and areas we visited in one word Truly amazing. The house is huge, every corner had its own unique country feel. The peace we felt, was beyond words. Hot water beach is just down the road. To our hosts, thank you for giving my families and I an experience we won't forget ❤ Highly recommend

An oldie but a goodie

Big 1970s two story house. 2 bedrooms downstairs and 3 upstairs. 1 big living room, dining & kitchen area and a sun room. Outdoor balcony space is a bit limited due to parts of the balcony being closed for repair. Plenty of space for families. Pet friendly. Good communication. Handy central location on main road between Whenukite and Coroglen. 15 min to Hot water beach, Hahei, Cooks Beach and 20min to Whitianga. Comfortable modern beds, good kitchen. Set back from main road. Avocado stall/honesty box system is run from the basement so lots of avocado in season but the occasional car pulls up to visit the stall. Excellent value for money. Well priced versatile location. Look forward to staying again.

Amazing farm stay. Spacious, comfortable, like a home away from home

Our two families stayed for 4 nights and with 11 of us we need somewhere big, spacious, comfortable and has everything we need to look after ourselves. This is not a 5 star properties and the owner has stated so. But if you are looking for that home away from home, this is it. We absolutely loved every minute being here. The kids enjoyed running around in the field and orchard. Hide and seek was a hit with the kids. Kitchen was full if utensils and appliances. Lounge and dining was big to fit both our families and gave rise to lots of bonding time. Communications were spot on and the owners were extremely helpful. We definitely would stay here again and just simple cannot recommend this place enough.

A wonderful memory we will cherish for the rest of our lives

The owners went over and above our expectations to assure that we are comfortable. The house and property is near the of activities we planned to do. The love and attention afforded us by the owners was beyond our expectations. Definitely the experience of our lives. Personally I give them a 10/10 for everything. It was more worth than we paid for.
