Guest Reviews
- Holly (10/5): Fabulous - Stress free, fabulous location, beautiful views, clean and great value for money. Lots of hidden gems around the place. Just down the road are the waterfalls and a beautiful place called falls retreat that does delicious pizza. Would stay here again.
- Danie (10/5): Super schöne Cabin in sehr ruhiger Lage - Super schöne abgelegene, ruhige Unterkunft mitten auf einer Farm. Gastgeber waren zuvorkommend und haben sich schnell gemeldet. Wer allerdings starker Raucher ist, sollte sich den Aufenthalt überlegen, da auch draußen auf dem Gelände (z.b. an der Feuerstelle) rauchen nicht gestattet ist! Für mich als Gelegenheitsraucher war das absolut kein Problem in und außerhalb der Unterkunft nicht zu rauchen, da wir die meiste Zeit sowieso unterwegs waren.
Es gibt insgesamt nichts zu beanstanden, Küche war super bestückt, Badezimmer schön groß und die ganze Cabin war mit sehr viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet. Wir würden jederzeit wieder buchen.
- Chris (10/5): Awesome - Everything We couldnt stay longer

- Ligia (10/5): An absolute gem of a getaway! We will definitely come back, if we have a chance! - An absolute gem of a getaway! We had the most incredible stay at this beautiful working farm, surrounded by breathtaking mountain views and just a short drive from the Waihi beach. The hosts were absolutely wonderful, warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about sharing their little slice of paradise. We also fell in love with their friendly dog and adorable cats, who added an extra touch of charm to our visit.
Waking up to a group of curious cows watching us from a distance was such a unique and delightful experience. The cabin itself was exceptionally comfortable, thoughtfully equipped, and made us feel completely at home and safe throughout our stay.
If you're looking for the perfect balance of tranquility and nature, this place is a dream come true. We will definitely come back, if we have a chance! No WiFi. However it gives you the oportunity to be off your socials and work related things that you want to avoid once on holiday.
- Edward (10/5): Brilliant on all fronts, location, hosts and peaceful setting, cannot recommend highly enough. - Not easy to find without GPS but hosts directed us to location on phone. A microwave would be useful. Wi-Fi also would be an added bonus.

- Aliz (10/5): Stylish, clean, private cottage with everything you need. Great value for money - Very secure and private accommodation with all you need for a holiday. The cottage is very clean, cozy and warm with a lovely design. It is in the peaceful countryside but only a short drive from town.
