Fabulous place to stay
This is the second time we have stayed here. Fabulous place, beautiful, peaceful. Perfect for a quiet country stay, but close enough to Patangata and Waipawa.

Spectacular and peaceful place to stay
We loved this place from the moment we arrived. So peaceful, fire set ready to light, ample space, and great for the dog. Good walk down the long driveway. Dark skies for star gazers, bbq, close enough to go to Patangata pub for a great meal. We will be back again.

Peaceful location
Beautiful location if you are after peace and quiet. A 30 min drive puts you at a beach or into a small town. Tennis court with night lights excellent. Arrived on a chilly day to fire set already (thank you) and then we had a couple of really warm days but sadly cyclone had impacted the pool pump which we did know about ahead of booking. Lots of room in the house.

Our family dream getaway
Upon arrival, you instantly know that your somewhere special. This Gem of a home is so welcoming, open and spacious, you’ll definitely need a moment to explore and adjust to the pure tranquil sounds of the country. This place is truly blessed. Everything has been thought through to ensure you need for nothing while you stay here at Jeremy and Sally’s. Our time here went way to fast but it was amazing. You made us feel welcomed, kept us informed and delivered on location, peace and quite and most importantly recreation, rest and relaxation. Love the pool, we didn’t want to get out of it. The community of Waipawa, Wow! Fish n chip, yummy, Waipawa Butchery is in a class of their own. Absolutely beautiful place to holiday. Will definitely come back and highly recommend. Thank you Jeremy and Sally for sharing your Gem of a home with us.

Epic farm getaway
Our family of 6 (2 adults and 4 pre-schoolers) had an amazing stay at this very family friendly property. Our kids spent all day alternating between the pool and tennis court, and admiring the cows from the front lawn. An epic property for a large family - great kitchen with heaps of cookware. We had a great summer stay and would highly recommend.

Gorgeous house in a tranquil spot
My family of 6 had a great time over the holidays in this wonderful property. As expected,the pool was the highlight, but we also made use of the sports court quite a bit to play tennis and practice cricket. The other highlight was the kitchen, which is very well stocked with plenty of pans, pots, and baking utensils. We love to cook, so that was fantastic. The house offers lots of space and very comfortable beds and linens. The owner is responsive and easy to deal with, very relaxed and friendly, a pleasure to deal with. Overall, one of the best vacation properties we've ever rented!
