Beautiful wee getaway. Clean and tidy with lovely host communication. We saw many fantails in the trees which was an added bonus! Definitely recommend
I and my dog had a lovely time in the Tiny house space and surrounds. I had the privacy I needed with beautiful views. It was delightful experiencing the sunrise and sunsets. I actually read a book from beginning to end in 2 evenings as I had no distractions - apart from hearing beautiful birdsong. There was no wifi (which was good!) We had a guided walk by Malcolm on the vast property and he had a wealth of knowledge about all the trees and plants surrounding. The Lavender fields are stunning especially where they are situated. There was everything in the Tiny house supplied so there was no need to venture too far. It was just bliss to have a patch of paradise to ourselves. I and my dog felt welcomed and would definitively recommend to friends and whanau!
So honoured to have been the first guests to stay here! What a beautiful, magical place, so set up for all your needs. And the ultimate peaceful getaway! Big thank you to Lyn & Malcolm for your personalised touch and care, making us feel so welcomed and at home. Also.. we celebrated the day of our engagement here!! This will forever be a special place to us. Thank you guys!!!
