The crew loved the stay, it was perfect as it wasn't far from the job & they didn't want to leave. The rural setting was also great for a good nights sleep. would happily stay again :)
The house was a great size for our family group and it is a lovely setting with rural views. The location was also good with easy access to Hot Water Beach, Hahei and Whitianga. The beds were all comfortable with nice linen.The bathrooms are a little tired, but adequate and the decks could do with some work.Even though the weather wasn't great while we were there we had a good time and would stay here again. Thank you.
Very good place for a large group of us to hang out, decent size front lawn to kick a ball around, large living room and decent sized table. Enough bedrooms and toilets for the whole group. Litchen was a little small but we managed if we cooked in small groups.
Brilliant property, it’s exactly what we expect. Plenty of room for the kids to run around while parents relax! Owners of the property have been wonderful went over top to ensure all our need were met there communication is great. Overall fantastic experience and will consider staying again.
Plenty of space with five bedrooms, lounge, dining and sunroom, and a front lawn and garden area. Good kitchen area, oven, expresso machine, amenities, etc, instructions avail for everything. BBQ needed a good clean prior to use, outdoor furniture lacking, some deck areas unavailable and/or required work. Good, easy communication with owner, quick answers to any queries.
We enjoyed our stay at the property, picking a variety of fruits to sample, visiting with sheep, enjoying the quiet. The home is certainly older and could use some maintenance (outside deck and a few other areas) but is spacious for a large group. The beds were comfy with clean crisp bedding, the kitchen is very well stocked and the breville coffee maker was definitely a hit. The owner was great to communicate with and answered questions quickly.
The host was really clear with the expectations and we had a wonderful time in his house. The house was perfect for two families with kids. Close enough to Hahei, hot water beach and cathedral cove. House was comfortable and had everything that we needed. Lovely and spacious. Host was always contactable. We will definitely be back, thank you!!
Too short...much regrets, should've booked longer, as the host, neighbour and areas we visited in one word Truly amazing. The house is huge, every corner had its own unique country feel. The peace we felt, was beyond words.
Hot water beach is just down the road.
To our hosts, thank you for giving my families and I an experience we won't forget ❤ Highly recommend
Big 1970s two story house. 2 bedrooms downstairs and 3 upstairs. 1 big living room, dining & kitchen area and a sun room. Outdoor balcony space is a bit limited due to parts of the balcony being closed for repair. Plenty of space for families. Pet friendly. Good communication. Handy central location on main road between Whenukite and Coroglen. 15 min to Hot water beach, Hahei, Cooks Beach and 20min to Whitianga. Comfortable modern beds, good kitchen. Set back from main road. Avocado stall/honesty box system is run from the basement so lots of avocado in season but the occasional car pulls up to visit the stall.
Excellent value for money. Well priced versatile location. Look forward to staying again.
Amazing farm stay. Spacious, comfortable, like a home away from home
Our two families stayed for 4 nights and with 11 of us we need somewhere big, spacious, comfortable and has everything we need to look after ourselves.
This is not a 5 star properties and the owner has stated so. But if you are looking for that home away from home, this is it. We absolutely loved every minute being here. The kids enjoyed running around in the field and orchard. Hide and seek was a hit with the kids. Kitchen was full if utensils and appliances. Lounge and dining was big to fit both our families and gave rise to lots of bonding time. Communications were spot on and the owners were extremely helpful.
We definitely would stay here again and just simple cannot recommend this place enough.
We had a lovely time over our new years break. The place is located close to many amazing beaches and the house is well equipped. Would deffinatly look to do this again!
A wonderful memory we will cherish for the rest of our lives
The owners went over and above our expectations to assure that we are comfortable. The house and property is near the of activities we planned to do. The love and attention afforded us by the owners was beyond our expectations. Definitely the experience of our lives. Personally I give them a 10/10 for everything. It was more worth than we paid for.
It was presented as backpackers accomodation. It was better than that. The beds were beautifully comfortable. The living areas were also very clean and comfortable. The hosts were obliging.
Amazing accommodation and it was fully supplied with everything a traveller would need. Very generous in the supplies we received. Some of the highlights were: Spacious rooms, comfy beds, bath towels were the bomb! amazing size hahaha and that was the coolest for us being Pacific people!!, beautiful scenery surrounding us and we felt that we were in our own secluded space which was amazing. The beaches were close by and it was nice to drive a small distance to get to the amazing beaches. Overall, definitely a place we would want to visit again. Thank you Godfrey and Rebecca for your accommodation, we all loved it. Blessings for 2021, S2H Leaders Team
