"Such a great stay- loved the little trailer "

"A special place. So tasteful in everything from linen robes to the soaps and lotions to the homemade jam in the morning. And the soaking tub outside - and outside shower - are bonuses. The view is spectacular. Plenty of lanterns give light. You don’t even realize you are off the grid! "

"Great scenic area. Wine tasting nearby. Hotel was wonderful and quiet. "

"An enchanting property for those seeking peace and tranquility, with a beautiful garden to explore amongst mature trees. We wish we’d had more time to appreciate all this and will aim to return and stay longer next time. Thank you Penny, for making us feel welcome and for being available during our stay. All the best, from Ngaire, Jane and Saffie "

"Very much enjoyed our stay here and thank you for allowing pets"

"Great location, close enough to dip into Chch if wanted, but perfectly positioned to enjoy all North Canterbury has to offer, with wineries, rivers and beaches, a stones through away. Positioned in the heart of a friendly community with plenty of Cafe and dinning options within walking distance. Loved the private deck and backyard along with the bonus of the pool table for some friendly family competition. Highly recommend - great character!"

"Wonderful hospitality! Clean comfortable and welcoming "

"A delightful property and location. Great facilities and luxuries. The Christmas tree was a great touch. Highly recommend."

"It started by being difficult to get a reply from the owner while booking. On arrival,we were not expected. The owner did arrive, apologised for the mix up and made an effort to clean it, but we just wanted to relax after a 4 hour drive on Christmas Eve. He perhaps didn't have enough time to clean properly because every area was dirty from floors, to shower to kitchen items and the fridge had expired food in it. It also felt uncomfortable with personal items: medications in fridge and legal documents in the TV cabinet. Games were a plus but we could not sit on the sofa as there was a smell of death, possibly from dead birds in the flue and there was a smell of cigarettes, including the bedsheets.Outside was not welcoming with a container overflowing with junk near the house and the access to the house was through a paddock of cows and bulls. The plus was the house itself was fenced off but there were still old cow dung around. Not what we had hoped for for a relaxing holiday and we chose to leave after 1 night rather than the 2 we paid for. "
