Amazingly well thought out and beautiful place to stay. The attention to detail on the interior decoration is fantastic, and the spa pool is private but in lovely garden surrounds. Great place to stay we'll be back.
A beautiful place to stay. The property, a touch of rural to enjoy. The Studio was just amazing, very luxurious, and cosy. Spa pool just fabulous. Lots of thoughtful touches.
Warm cosy, comfortable and well appointed self contained pad. Easy walk in to town and short drive to all the attractions of the region.

Beautiful accommodation in a beautiful setting
Just gorgeous. Beautiful venue in a gorgeous spot. Peaceful and highly recommend.
There is nothing not to like. Worth the visit.
The place was nice and warm on arrival and was so well set up. Perfect place to stay while in methven. Would highly recommend, and would stay there again when coming to methven. Especially loved the lamp next to the couch, would love to know where I could get one.
Nothing the place was great.
Cozy studio on a beautiful, immaculately maintained property set down a long driveway just a few mins drive from Methven shops and Opuke Thermal Pools. We arrived after dusk and the studio was lit up, heated, curtains pulled, heatpump and soft music on - so welcoming. Studio itself has been lovingly restored with high quality fixtures and fittings. Bed is super comfortable and linens etc are high quality. Kitchenette is well equipped though we didn’t cook - the Indian nearby was probably best we have ever had. Lovely bowl of walnuts from the property on the table. We didn’t get to use the spa at night but on a clear morning hopping in at daybreak is a treat - watching the sky colours change from one direction to seeing the sun hit the mountains in the other direction. As a host I have high standards and this host and property hit the mark perfectly.
The studio had some really lovely touches. Beautifully fitted out. We would have liked to be staying longer. The hot tub was excellent for our starry night.
Location, beautiful interior design/decor, kind host, and quietness.
The studio was exactly as pictured. Great location, lovely hosts and very comfortable. Everything you need for a great stay
From arrival to departure the ambience is superb. They’ve put on a good show, in a beautiful garden setting with historic roots to boot.
Excellent property.
Oh we are SO coming back!!! We absolutely loved the space. Nice, private, quiet, and tasteful. Every little thing was the way it should be - nice luxurious bathroom, tasteful furniture, friendly host, spa pool, the list is ongoing. Could not recommend this place more.
Nothing at all! Loved every last bit of the space!
Return visit to this little beauty. The decor is charming and the spa pool is so nice!

Loved to pet the baby sheep and how comfy the little studio was. Pity we didn’t stay longer. And thank you so much for sharing the historic gigantic delicious walnuts - they were Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious! The cat coming in and greeting us in the morning was hilarious too.
Very private. Hosts emailed to say the room was ready and the door would be unlocked. Hosts were available if needed but respected our privacy. Facilities were incredible- very clean, tasteful, everything we needed and top quality.
Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt: Die ruhige, gemütliche Umgebung, die tolle Ausstattung, die wunderschönen Gärten und der private Jacuzzi im Garten haben unseren Aufenthalt perfekt gemacht.
Best holiday ever !!! Loved the property and everything about it !!! Comfy bed! Great facilities amazing spa, lambs that are super friendly beautiful gardens to walk around. Pubs, restaurants and shops nearby so super handy location . Host was friendly .
Loved everything .
We absolutely loved staying at Northfield Studio! Arlene was a fantastic host and she was very responsive, friendly and helpful during our stay :) The interior of the studio that we stayed in was exceptionally clean, cosy and well designed with a vintage feel to it. We enjoyed reading about the history of the house. The gardens and surroundings are really beautiful as well, with well trimmed hedges and a pretty farm enclosure where the owners rear their sheep :) Arlene was also so kind to bring us to see her sheep, which are adorable! Situated in the small town of Methven, it is a perfect place for peaceful getaway. The town centre is nearby and it was easy to get food and shop for groceries. We would highly recommend staying at Northfield Studio. Thank you Arlene for hosting us!
Perfect! I enjoyed so much the place.
Nothing!
Such a gorgeous studio, furnished and fitted out beautifully, with much appreciated extras, like milk in the fridge, coffee machine, quality teas and coffee and luxurious bathroom products. The owners were lovely and gave us complete privacy, but were there if we needed anything. Positioned well in the cute village of Methven too. We'd love to come back.
The only thing we didn't like was that we didn't have more time to spend there, which meant we didn't get to make use of the hot spa. Next time!
Excellent all around, private beautiful little gem
Arlene introduced such a cosy and comfortable place to us. The accommodation has all the things that we want, especially the hot tub. Lastly, a special thank to James, who picked us to the bus station with our heavy luggages!
Northfields was honestly the most beautiful accomodation of our entire NZ trip and one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed! Arlene was an amazing host and the property is gorgeous. The flat itself has been so thoughtfully furnished with every little detail designed to bring comfort and beauty to the space. The hot tub gave us a wonderful way to wind down at the end of the day and stargaze.
Very well appointed and the owners where lovely. The walnuts were delicious thank you 😁
Lovely quality. Comfortable bed. We slept so well.
Really comfortable and well provisioned, lush surroundings easily walkable to town. Hot tub an extra bonus! Great place to get away from it all
Although the owners house is right next to the room. We felt like we had the place to ourselves. They won't bother you and they respect your privacy. That spa pool is super relaxing as well. We will be back 😊
Nothing. Perfect.
The studio has a great style. Very friendly hosts.
The location is fabulous and not as busy as other tourist spots
It was all lovely , can’t wait to go back
Beautiful studio, super comfortable and relaxing. Spa pool was great and host lovely.
Slightly further to walk to shops than other accomodation options but if you’re driving no problem.

The privacy and peace
Loved the locality to methven . Easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Loved that it was in a quiet road and property at back of section. Peaceful and quiet. Loved the attention to detail in the accommodation.- furnishings, toiletries, perfect size for a couple. Use of spa pool was a bonus. Unfortunately no star gazing as overcast both nights we stayed. Loved that the owners renovated the main house and have kept it for generations to enjoy
Super comfortable, great bathroom, gorgeous design and very cute sheep!
Can't think of anything.
The Studio was just beautiful! Very spacious and well appointed to relax and enjoy. Absolutely spotlessly clean and well equipped kitchenette. The toiletries were beautiful products and the bed was so comfy! Amazing hosts and we loved meeting the sheep! Great location close to town.
Nothing! Everything was perfect 😊
Set in beautiful gardens this studio was perfect in every way with tasteful and great quality furnishings and bedding.
Location was great , as was venue, very well presented, a lot of thought went into the decor, comfortable , loved the spa,
Husband would have liked brighter lighting, wife ok with what was there
Gorgeous setting, modern,clean. Nice homely touches eg Nespresso coffee homemade shortbread was yum. Lovely linen and comfy bed and couch. Will definitely be back, star gazing in spa pool at night a bonus. Lovely hospitality and cute sheep
Charming studio. Very nicely appointed. Loved the hot tub!
Nothing not to like. It was perfect.
This property totally exceeded our expectations!! The host (James) was very friendly and informative. We had a great chat. The property/room was immaculate and the bed was very comfortable. We both felt very much at home and would definitely recommend this property. It was the highlight (along with the Opuke Thermal Pools) of our 2 x week holiday in the South Island. We will definitely be booking this property again in the future and will be recommending it to all our family and friends. Thanks again. 😁
Lovely location and very relaxing.
Really comfortable bed and a lovely room. The hot tub was fabulous! Great location, just a short walk from the pub and restaurants. Excellent location to go and hike Mount Sunday. We loved our stay here.
Perfect location for the hot pools
Luxurious and private, we felt pampered staying in this studio in a beautiful country setting.

Arlene was a fantastic host! The property was beautiful and all the extra little touches made our stay so comfortable and cosy. Will definitely return when we are next in NZ and will recommend to our family and friends who live here.

The accommodation exceeded all expectation.. It had beautiful surroundings with an easily accessible spa. the studio was immaculate inside, stylish, and it caters for everything you could need. I would totally recommend this place.
One of the nicest places we’ve stayed at. Absolutely stunning location and the accommodation itself is amazing. A very short walk into town. Would highly recommend booking and we will be telling our friends and family to stay there.
Absolutely loved everything about this place..this will be our go to accommodation in future visits to Methvern.

First impressions driving into the property were great. Superbly decorated and comfortable. A beautiful space. Very happy with our decision to stay the studio Northfield. The host James was very helpful and friendly. 🙂
Nothing really. Lovely spot.
Very comfortable and private. Perfect from restaurants and pubs.
In a perfect world probably needed another electric plug in kitchen area.
Loved the property! Excellent facilities and attention to detail! Will definitely be back!
A beautiful hideaway surrounded by nature and so quiet. Very comfortable and the entire place was just what we needed.
This was so beautiful, comfortable and clean. It was quiet but close to town. The host Arlene was lovely. Thank you
Nothing! It was brilliant
Owners were amazing, and added bonus we got to hangout with the sheep and lambs 🐑
Great room, nicely appointed. Charming.
Absolutely gorgeous accommodation. Host went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. This was my favourite accommodation whilst in NZ, really loved it and the whole experience was amazing. Host recommended the Dubliner for dinner which was also the best. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.
We loved that this had everything needed for a relaxing stay after skiing. The host was lovely and the room was perfect. We absolutely loved an evening cuddling the sheep. The view of the mountains just outside our room. The option to have a spa was very tempting. Loved the wallnuts and chocolates as a special surprise. The bed and the pillows felt amazing. We wish we had more time to stay here longer. This was our favourite place to stay in NZ so far
Stunning place with beautiful decor and friendly helpful people.
Amazing air bnb, beautifully decorated. Lots of thoughtful touches. Loved the spa and the peaceful setting. Friendly hosts, will be back again! Thanks 😊
Everthing! The studio is nicely designed and decorated. The host is very nice and welcoming, even guiding us to his farm to introduce the new bron little sheep! Another bonus is they have a private outdoor spa pool only for guest and you can use it anytime! The studio is right beside the house so no worries about the privacy (also the security), and it is very close to town centre (1-2 min drive). Such an unforgattable experince during the stay. Will definitely recommend to friends and relatives!
The hosts were so friendly and gave us complete privacy, the unit is so beautifully furnished and styled and the property itself is tranquil and homely. It was warm (we stayed just before spring/end of winter) everything was provided
I could not fault this place one bit.
Gorgeous set up and very private, even though it's an attached studio
A very nicely designed and decorated studio. It was very comfortable and had all the facilities we needed to enjoy a quiet and private stay. The owners were very pleasant and friendly. While the studio is attached to their lovely two storey character home, we enjoyed complete privacy. We were told we were welcome to explore the expansive grounds of the property and we enjoyed exploring their very well-kept garden and grounds.
Thoroughly enjoyable thanks.
Comfortable bed, quiet location.
The bed was super comfortable and the place was immaculate. It had a beautiful homely feel to it!
There was a great range of teas and coffee but no hot chocolate. No electric blankets but wasn't needed as the heatpump was great at warming up the room
Absolutely stunning 😍 beautiful location, private, exceptionally clean and welcoming host. Perfection
Wow what a great place to stay. We could not fault it at all. Everything was quality from the furniture right down to the light switches. Leather couches, large 46 or 50 inch TV with Netflix. So quiet, and lovely grounds including 2 friendly pet sheep. Host was so lovely and welcoming and I can't wait to stay there again
There was absolutely nothing to dislike. It was perfect.
