Snowberry Cottage at Lochsloy Farm Little River

Bellissimo cottage in mezzo alla natura. Host super gentile

Troppo freddo dentro. Cucina attrezzata ma difficile da usare essendo piccolissimo lo spaziop

Gorgeous, quiet and peaceful

I loved the farm setting with the verandah offering a lovely view at sunset. It was a great way to finish a day of travel. The owners were friendly and helpful.

The location was amazing- beautiful views, peaceful and relaxing.

Un petit coin de paradis. Vue magnifique, paisible et cosy. Merci à Mary pour son accueil je me suis sentie comme chez moi.

A perfect place to stay after cycling the Little River Rail Trail. The cottage was cosy inside, the bed was comfortable once you'd climbed into it! The views were amazing.

Bon accueil, les clé étaient facile à récupérer, les informations quant au logement et les environs on été appréciés. C'est bien situé par rapport aux lieux d'intérêt et la chambre est bien équipée dans un espace très agréable. Possibilité de manger dehors dans un beau jardin, le parking étant un atout.

Tout était parfait.

Beautiful property with an incredible view.

No gripes.

Comfy and cosy bed, cabin had everything we needed. Slept well 😊

This accommodation is at a family run farm. Even though this cute cabin is next to the family home it gave us the impression that we were in a secluded place. Our welcoming committee was a flock of sheep meeting us on the driveway. Marie apologized but we thought it was the perfect experience especially as it is a working farm. The Cottage was well equipped and very clean. The loft bed was very comfortable but anyone who is tall be aware that the ceiling under the loft bed is approximately 5 feet in height. It didn’t bother us at all. There’s a welcoming book with the history of the farm that is very interesting and Marie gave us directions for our road trip to Twizel for the next day. If we ever return for another vacation to New Zealand we will definitely book Snowberry Cottage again but for a longer stay.

Everything was wonderful. It was wonderful watching the young sheep jumping around and the whole flock bleating as the background music for our evening at Snowberry Cottage.

景色非常美，房子设计很独特，还可以喂小羊，太棒了

These guys accepted a super last minute booking after my other air BnB was cancelled. We had a phenomenal stay. The host was lovely she even offered for us to stay until the next afternoon no extra charge! The location and scenery is insane. The cabin/cottage was super cozy and such a clever use of space. We got to feed the sheep on the morning and even had a visit from some beautiful geese. Cannot thank the host enough if I am in the area again I would definitely go back and stay again.

Einmalige Lage, ruhig, mit Blick auf den See. Super toll ausgestattet, es fehlt an nichts, obwohl es nur ein kleines Haus ist.

The cottage was well built and has everything you need.

None.

Beautiful property! More stunning than the photos. I appreciated feeding the sheep and having access to a washer. She also sells yarn from her sheep if you are crafty.

This was in the description, but I would prefer sleeping on a bed that is not lofted. I add this mainly for people with mobility needs. The kitchen was a bit lackluster. It was missing a traditional 2 burner hot plate and I personally struggled a bit to cook with the provided appliances.

Superschöne Lage auf einer Farm

Etwas eng, kein Schlüssel für die Eingangstüre,

the quirkiness and the location

nothing

This was the perfect place for my last stop before heading to Christchurch. A cozy little cottage with beautiful views and surroundings, on a remote sheep farm. It had everything I needed. The hosts were very welcoming. Really enjoyed the sunset in the evening and listening to all the birds for one last time.

Spectacular location and views

We had such a lovely stay at the cottage. The hosts were absolutely wonderful-so friendly, attentive, and always happy to help with anything we needed or recommend things to do in the area. The cabin itself was cozy and comfortable. The sheep wandering around the grounds were absolutely adorable and added so much charm to the place. It was peaceful, relaxing, and full of character. We’d happily stay here again!

The location was amazing. Beautiful sunsets. Birdsong. Sheep in the paddocks saying hello.

Nothing.

Lovely views, quiet surroundings, idyllic spot.

Nothing!

I was afraid due to high winds the roof might be blown off or the cottage blown over from the hil side 😀

did mot sleep much.. Made myself crazy with the idea that...? Woud have like a breakfast option. But dus my ownbthing in the kitchenette where there was coffie yeahh

Views were amazing and the location was just off the rail trail which was perfect.

Snowberry cottage was a wonderful location with a fabulous uninterrupted view of the lake. Situated close to yet very private from the main residence. Tiny but very well appointed with comfortable, well laid out facilities. Very welcoming, responsive and helpful host who really made our stay enjoyable. Would highly recommend this great little cottage to others.

Rode past the farm gate as hadn't noticed that the cottage was located on Lochsloy farm. Easily sorted by trusting google maps to turn us up the right driveway.

It was a small but lovely cottage. It had everything i needed, perfect for a night. And the cute cat from the hosts stayed the whole night with me :)

Great place in the country for a short stay.

Easy to find. A beautiful location, with views over the lake. If you aren't small in height be careful of banging your head as part of downstairs is very low. Clambering into bed could also be a problem. The house didn't appear to be checked before we arrived ( no milk, only 1mug, 1glass, loo roll ended.) Towels very scratchy. Hardly any internet. Modem light turned on and off all night. $160 was not value.

The setting, the sheep in the field below the balcony, the view down the valley to the lake.

It is very small and you have to duck your head.

Quaint cottage with great farm and water views. Hosts terrific.

Bit on the small side, limited headroom in places, steep steps to bed

The location was stunning, the views fantastic, the host lovely and very helpful.

The bed is a loft bed and this is not mentioned in the Booking.com description. It says that access is via stairs only, which is quite normal where stairs means staircase, and the photos do hint at its location but it's not fully apparent. For most people this would not be a problem, indeed a plus, but for an older couple in their 60s, requiring several trips to the toilet during the night, it meant having to negotiate over each other and then down the steep steps. Had we but known we would not have stayed, but we did love every other aspect about the place.

Amazing stay with a great host. Loved to have the cottage a bit out of the way of the main road and had a great night's sleep. We were able to feed the sheep as well as getting a load of information about little river. Ans the cottage is well equipped with everything we needed.

the bathroom sink is not to that big, but was otherwise fine.

Absolutely amazing place with sheep, a stunning view from the terrace and birdsongs!

Fantastic views and the peace and quiet are idyllic

View tranquillity

Bbq dangerous, no hot plate. Low clearance, need to watch your head.

The cottage position in the farm, the wonderful view and the flock of sheep in the grass

The uniqueness

Nothing

Comfortable and quiet location to focus on relaxing, with spectacular views. All modern facilities provided in a small package. Literally sitting next to a paddock with sheep and lambs for company - and one of the largest cats I have ever seen. Friendly owners and lots of information about the local area provided re history and local sights and cafes. Heater on when I got there to take the bite out of the cold day. Much appreciated.

If you are tall (I'm 6'4") mind your head on the bunk bed frame, and the varying floor levels at night. All manageable stuff if you are aware of them.

Nice location, great views and lovely host

Not suitable for the vertically challenged. Quite cramped and not very practical.

Quiet, serene location. Cute funky cottage with loft sleeping area, easy to manage stairs to the loft. Resident cat made herself comfortable. :) Got to feed the sheep by hand. Very engaging and welcoming hosts.

40 min drive to Akaroa.

Really nice quiet place

The little cottage is set in a beautiful location and is very peaceful.

The head clearance under the bed.

We loved the peace and quiet! Had a good rest, and on our last night, we were fortunate to have clear skies, which gave us the most spectacular view of the night sky! Felt like we could touch the stars! Hope we can return sometime in the future.

That we weren't staying longer!

The view towards the bay is absolutely fantastic. It‘s a lovely little cottage with kitchen and bathroom. Perfect place to stay if you‘re in the area. Quiet at night, a sky full of stars observable from the terrace. Very friendly lady. If it wasn‘t for the bugs (all windows and doors have insect protection, but a few do slip in somehow) and the heat, which kept us up at night, I couldn‘t think of a more perfect place to fall asleep and wake up in.

Our host was welcoming and helpful. The view was lovely and the house is quirky and interesting.

Stunning view down the valley to the sea from the balcony Little light pollution, good for star gazing in spite of the surrounding hills Well equipped kitchen and very efficient top loading washing machine This place is small but if has character

Bed on upper floor very close to the ceiling, easy to bang your head on the rafters. I did wonder if a pull out sofa below would have been a better solution. Sink in bathroom a bit too small, easy to flood the floor

I loved how everything we needed was right there. Once we checked in we didn't need to leave, it was perfect. The host was so friendly and welcoming. I'd come back anytime.

Amazing. Perfect for our first few days in New Zealand. We were there on a couple of rainy days and all of our activities got cancelled but we didn't even mind, we just enjoyed the lovely deck and the sounds of the birds and the rain and sheep. Lovely drive up the hill just passed their driveway too. Excellent location. Has everything you could need. Fridge, microwave, washer, drying rack, BBQ on deck, loft bed. Lots of DVDs, games, books...etc.

The location is fabulous and the owner very helpful. The cottage is cute and quirky and faces out over the loch.

Great location with fabulous view!

Nothing

The location is incredible and the views were stunning. The animals around the farm were a delight and the host was lovely and welcoming. Nice touch having a BBQ and the parking onsite was also great.

It was far too hot in the evening, there was only one small fan and this wasn’t strong enough. The bed is also high to the ceiling which also doesn’t help with the heat. I also banged my head about 10 times. If we went during a colder period I am sure it would have been perfect.

The location is amazing! Lovely host as well, thank you!

The interior was nice, the kitchen well-equipped, everything was clean, and the views are absolutely stunning. We enjoyed every second of our stay.

Bathroom is a bit small.

I liked the animals and watching the sun go down, the host was very friendly and welcoming. It was clean, and I enjoyed talking to the sheep and the cat.

Gorgeous little house with stunning views. All you could need in a small space. Good location for exploring the peninsula. Loved our time there.

Quirky lovely little cottage, on a farm with a beautiful view. Clean inside, comfortable bed, washing machine and Marie the hostess was lovely and friendly. It was very cosy, and if you don't mind this, then I highly recommend it

Parasol on the balcony would have been perfect

Great location on Banks Beninsula with awesome views and really nestled in nature. Loved that I could drive down to have a fossick on Birdling Flat beach and then gaze at the stars later on. V comfy and all that I needed for the night. Had brought some pre prepared food which made things easy

Couldnt find any cooking utensils but it was OK

Loved the peaceful and idilic setting. The owner was very friendly and gave us some great tourist tips and brought over some lovely fudge on arrival.

The cabin would benefit of some shade cover or umbrella for the small deck, as it got too hot to sit outside in the afternoon. There was no milk to go with the coffee/tea that was provided and some more toiletries would be good ( there was one bottle without a label in the bathroom, but I didn’t know whether it was shampoo or body wash) These are small things and it didn’t detract from the lovely stay we had, but it’s something that most places do supply.

Very welcoming owner

Something was happening next door it was followed in the morning by emergency services. The owner could have come round and told us.

Incredible location, with a beautiful view looking over farmland to the lake. Very small but comfortable cottage with everything you need. Special touch of homemade fudge on arrival :)

Stunning views, birds chirping, private, clean, homely feel Very cute, loved it Will be back 😁

Nothing at all I liked it all

Everything we could possibly need was supplied in the compact little cottage. The sheep were super friendly and the host was helpful and delightful to talk to. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the countryside and the birdsong was a highlight. We would certainly consider a return trip.

Nothing!

A lot

Small bed area

A lovely little comfortable place with incredible views. Well equipped, friendly host, just a nice place to be.

Was a little cold when we arrived but soon warmed up.
