"Our family had a wonderful time at this property. Really handy for sightseeing across both coasts in the upper north island. Proximity to Kerikeri is an easy drive and the remote nature of the property was just what we needed. The property is well appointed with everything you need to enjoy a self catered holiday. Highly recommend friendly unobtrusive hosts and property. Thank you!"

"We arrived to check in after booking our stay in mid August, this was confirmed by Expedia/Book a Bach and our payment taken. When we arrived to check in on 30 December the hotel staff could find no record of our booking. They tried everything to see where our booking was. The staff were very helpful and went out of their way to try and find alternative accommodation for the night. We could not get hold of Expedia/Book a Bach, the 0800 number has been in overload for the past 24 hours, the virtual chat on the app was useless and achieved nothing, I have tried to email with no response. I want a refund for my booking but it seems Expedia are missing in action. This is not the fault of the hotel staff, they were great and the property looks amazing.3 1/2 hours drive later we found somewhere to stay. Still no response from Expedia on my refund and seems there is no way to lodge a claim for a refund on the app. Come on Expedia, get in touch and get this sorted, you are quick to promote yourselves and take the booking/payment, what about some service when things go wrong. I wait in anticipation before taking this further via other avenues. A great holiday spoilt by some faceless corporate who cant be contacted. Thanks to the Opononi Hotel staff who did all they could to rectify this at a very busy time, it was much appreciated."

"A great escape. A throw back to rural NZ on the wild west coast. The batch was simple but everything we expected. A great place to stay if you are heading to the lakes."

"Very charming, welcoming cottage & gardens, all the comforts incl pantry staples, beautiful kauri floors & enjoyed the open fire. Perfect hosts. Close to Kerikeri, Ngawha hot pools & significant historical sites. Would have stayed longer if time permitted."

"A wonderful NZ experience."

"Such a quiet relaxing haven in a very laid back village. "

"Our team of 15 teachers stayed for one night while up North on a professional development weekend. The house was a convenient location and a good size. Our only disappointment was that some rooms were locked meaning that our teachers had to share beds. We had anticipated that the entire house would be available to us and therefore extra beds and bedrooms in the cottage. Other than that we had a lovely stay. The home is spacious with a lovely garden outlook. The kitchen is very basically equipped but was sufficient for us and the host communicated well."
