"The staff was incredibly helpful, kind and wonderful. Staying at this motel made my week and i had never been so happy to sleep in a bed before in my life. The property is beautiful, the rooms are cozy and comfortable and clean and i cannot stress enough just how amazing the staff are. I absolutely will recommend this place for anyone wanting to stay in Wairoa."

"Roomy property close to town with lovely river views. Reception staff friendly and welcoming "

"My partner, sister and myself had an amazingly relaxing stay at the cottage. Our favourite spot was the back deck. There is beautiful view across the river to paddocks with cows grazing, and the sound of the river running below. Our thanks to John for a wonderful stay. "

"Enjoyable stay. Well stocked with everything. However, the lockwood house creaked loudly. We live in a lockwood - needs the rods tightening under the house to stop creaking."

"Very remote and beautful area, with a lovely river running through the property."

"a modernised but characterful cottage looking over the lake. Friendly hosts and a great escape from busyness. A great place to recharge your batteries."
