"The cottage was perfect for our overnight needs. The kitchen was modern, clean and well-stocked. The bedrooms were comfortable and we loved eating a home-cooked meal on the deck. The night bugs were out when the sun went down so we didn’t spend time on the porch after dinner. The water views were lovely - we just wish we had more time to swim! The owner was in contact quickly with lots of useful information. The property is in a neighborhood that is fairly remote. We stopped in Kawhia...

"What a perfect place to stay, great communication, all we needed for our 2 night escape, would love to visit again for longer."

"This property was very unique and a great place to stay, especially after visiting the Hobbiton Movie Set earlier in the day. The rooms did smell a little like “Middle Earth” when we arrived, but the fans were running and the owners were obviously trying to deal with the problem which was much appreciated. Opening the windows and leaving them open helped as well. It was spacious and well able to accomodate 5 adults. The water was lovely to shower in and great for drinking. The location was just...

"Been to Kawhia a few times and stayed at the camp grounds. With parents wanting to join I wanted to find somewhere close and homey! Excellent central location, all the ammenities and relaxing atmosphere. Perfect for escaping the busy city life. "

"It is a beautiful property, well-appointed and comfortable. Has the most amazing views.Beds and linen are comfortable Bathrooms and water pressure are very goodThe kitchen is well stocked with utensils Needs a bit of a spring clean, floors, walls, and windows, with a few cobwebs, dead flies, etc. Nothing too diety but noticeable."

"Great spot, classic old school kiwi batch - I forgot my fishing rod, don't forget yours!"

"It was unusual to have no kitchen wash basin, so we had to use the bathroom tap for the kettle or rinsing."

"It was just as described but a too small for 4 adults. Great for family for one night. Very close to Black water caves, it was perfect for that. The Fat Kiwi Cafe is a must visit just 9 minutes down the road. Missed a stove but the BBQ was a great improvision. Very cool concept. "

"My family stayed here for two nights. This location is just around the corner from the caves, but is secluded. An excellent place to stay to avoid the crowds. The hostess responds fairly quickly to questions. I highly recommend going on the farm tour if you can - the tour is usually included for people staying at one of the hostess's properties, and includes the opportunity to meet sheep, cows, goats, alpacas, emus, and ostriches. It was very fun! I also highly recommend turning off all the...

"From the moment we drove in Kawhia bay and stepped onto the balcony we were in heavon! The Bach had everything we needed, we were able to bbq every night, the kitchen was well equipped, large fridge to stock our food and drinks (note there are no local shops so you need to bring what you need - closet general store is 15 min drive). Bed was super comfy and the open kitchen and living area that opened on to balcony looking over the bay was fantastic. The large dining table was great to not only...

"Great host and stay. Good because its central but if you are a light sleeper then you will nottice the road noise."
