Wellsford Farmstay Serenity.

Paul & Sue welcomed us to their farm & wonderful self contained cottage located adjacent to the main residence. From the first introduction our hosts could not do enough for us to ensure we had all we needed for our stay. Their friendly local advice saved us having to do trial & error in most of the important matters contributing to daily life plus giving us the places to see & things to do whilst in the area - a greatly appreciated help. From within the cottage the views both toward the south & north out over the surrounding farming country are just magnificent & relaxing. The property was excellent as were the hosts & their friendly cat Carlos also made us feel at home during our stay. When next we come to NZ we would make every effort to again share in this wonderful relaxing rural retreat. Thank you Paul & Sue Jones.

I had beautiful days in this cute and cosy Bach. It is surrounded by a lovely garden and green hills. Very near to great hikes at Te Arai point and Mangawhai. Susan and Paul are the most supportive and friendly hosts I can imagine. Highly recommended, will be back!

Lovely location attention to a few details would help.

enjoyed the quiet and views, was a bit frustrated as I could not get into the book a batch page as I forgot my log in , I had wanted to ask some questions of host before packing. Was very comfortable would have been good to have some sort of screen for flies and mosquitoes as could not open windows when hot. Hosts were kind . Felt the place could have been a bit better cleaned lots of cobwebs,hair and dust about. Floor was clean and surfaces. The 2 plate stove could not get hot enough to fry food adequately and so had to cook food for ages despite having it on high as possible...perhaps time to replace this?

Cosy cottage in a great spot!

Great stay in a great spot! Peaceful rural outlook, but close enough to beaches (Managawhai about 14km away). Well set up with everything you need. Friendly hosts. Thanks!
