"Holiday in NZ"

10.0

Mel's Retreat is as described, quiet surrounding and nice elevated view of the town especially at night as it's on an elevated ground. The room set up is as good as a 5 star hotel room. The refrigerator has all the assorted drinks. You could watch Netflix and other programmes. At the farm, scattered are a few sheep and horses. I could park my car at the entrance. I would stay here again. Mel and Glen are very hospitable. Thank you.

"Fabulous home stay location."

9.0

Very warm welcome, Mel loads up the fridge and counter with plenty of treats, some home baked which are excellent. Outdoor area and jacuzzi are fabulous. Parking. Mel does the washing up!

As some gave said before the bathroom is really quite small. The sink is very small. We were there a couple of nights and whilst not a major issue, it was slightly annoying.
