This property is beautiful!! The home is fully furnished. It is accurate to the pictures and description, but it does not do proper justice. This property is an amazing place to get a break from the busy life. The hosts are very kind and make a very welcoming environment. The property is located next to numerous farms, so seeing animals daily is a bonus.

Lovely, well kept and super clean studio appt. Our hosts were very welcoming to us, and knowledgable about the local area attractions. The studio is set in the rolling hills, and is a real farm-stay gem. Continental breakfast supplies are in the studio so you can have breakfast whenever you like. Well stocked pantry and kitchen too. Lots of parking should you need it. If we come back to NZ at some point, we will come back here again :) Fyi...it really is a great base to travel around the local area. ( Hobbiton is less than 15 mins away).

The owners were incredibly friendly and welcoming - and we were even able to check in early. The place is in a nice quiet spot on a farm just a 15 minute drive from Hobbiton. Perfect location to stay if visiting there.

Thank you for being great hosts. We arrived a little after hour and was accommodated and given a small tour of the apartment. The property was clean and large with views overlooking the pasture and farmland. It was always nice and quiet. Appreciate the breakfast items prepared although we did not get to fully utilize it.
