"Very relaxing week. Comfortable cottage. Magnificent gardens. Penny was very friendly and helpful. Would love to return."

"Was a nice break"

"Beautifully located next to Mt Richardson DOC area with lots of forest walks at your doorstep. The property is huge and great for adventures for little kids (away from screens). The house is warm and beautifully recently decorated. Comfortable beds and nice bedding. There is no internet available and therefore no smart TV access (not necessarily a bad thing but notable). Would love to stay again in the summer months. "

"The host was really nice and welcoming- had a great stay and place is so beautiful. "

"The house was extremely spacious.The hosts are great. They have some chickens and horses that the kids fed.The showers water pressure is a bit low and the rooms are a bit cold despite the wood burner and the heat pump.Highly recommended for large families with kids."

"Fantastic communication. Exceptional house and totally recommend anyone looking for a base to discover North Canterbury and/or Waipara wine country. Thanks so much"
