Nice but not all we expected
The property was lovely and we had a nice stay but the description of the property is not accurate. It is no longer a working deer farm (much to the disappoint of our kids) and you can’t walk around the property and up through the forest (much to the disappointment of my kids). All in all would recommend still.

Relaxing farm stay
Ivor and Rob were friendly hosts and easy to communicate with. The house was as expected and in a beautiful setting in the Takaka valley. The amenities were good. It may be good if the hosts invest in some new cushions for the couch for extra comfort as they were a bit worn, and some sharper knives would be useful in the kitchen. Thanks for having us!
Beautiful property, kids loved looking at all the animals. The accommodation was quiet, comfortable and had everything we needed.

Recharge in Paradise
Had fantastic time. The hosts, Ivor & Rob were really helpful and made our stay a total treat. So many things to do in the area and then relax with a beer with the deer in the afternoon. Highly recommend staying here :)

Farm Stay
This is a lovely peacful place, Ivor & Robyn were very helpful giving us advice of where to visit while we were in the area. The bach was very well equipped and if you needed anything you just had to ask. I would recommend this to my freinds and family and would book it again if we come to New Zealand.
Thank you

Private comfortable farm stay
This was perfect for our small family that dont really want to be in the hustle and bustle of the main areas but close enough to commute easily.
Very comfy and nice outlook onto the valley and farm animals.
Owners are helpful and friendly.

A good way to explore the area
Even though we had to leave a day earlier than expected to help out a friend stuck after a cancelled flight out of Takaka, we enjoyed the location and property, with a good vibe and plenty of space. Robyn and Ivor were great hosts.
Do be aware that there are cockerels on the farm so you might have some early wake-up calls - it is a farmstay after all. The chickens roam around so might be close to the bedrooms sometimes. The highway is also nearby but we had no noise worries from that and it makes it very easy to just pop down the drive and head out into the region on adventures.
When it came to cleaning up, it was good to find a decent quality vacuum cleaner in the cupboard - little things like that help and it's a useful time saver.

Better than the listing
A little gem. Nice hosts, cute goats, ducks, turkeys, chickens and dogs. Too rural to have Vodafone coverage, but Spark works like a charm!

Clean and comfortable.
It was a bit farther from Takaka and I feel the owners should put in the listing that it is 20kms before. Kitchen knives need to be sharpened so they are useable. Friendly dogs and animals. Quite lovely.
