Clean contemporary and comfortable. A small hilltop cabin just 10 minutes from otorohanga. I arrived in the evening and the bed was warmed up. Definitely value for money with breakfast in the deal. Will come again!
Nothing
A lovely little cabin. It had everything I needed and the breakfast was very welcomed! The cows in the morning were great to watch whilst sipping my morning coffee. The shower was hot and the water made my hair so soft and silky! The bed was comfortable. The mini gas heater warmed the room so quickly I had to turn off as I got so hot (haha).
I couldn’t fault this stay.
The owner was very friendly and welcoming. The room was a bit smaller than we had been used but the view was amazing
Jamie the host was very friendly and helpful; very cozy cabin in a lovely rural setting
It would have been nice to have a bit of protein with breakfast - maybe hard boiled eggs;
Spectacular views, very clean and tidy and the hosts were lovely
Sterne können gut beobachtet werden.
Sehr kalte Hütte im Winter, da Isolierung kaum vorhanden ist und die (an sich sehr angenehme und schöne!) Feuerstelle im Schlaf nicht an sein darf und die Wärme sehr schnell wieder entweicht.
Colt (there dog) was so welcoming. He was superb. The place and hosts are commendable, have a nice view in a good location.
Beautiful location. Friendly host.
Would have liked a microwave.
El lugar es hermoso y los anfitriones son unas excelentes personas, todo estuvo increible
The views were amazing. The owner and the dog were great. Room was clean and comfortable.
Farmstay vom feinsten. Super nette Gastgeber-Familie. Schöne Farm auf einem tollen Hügel mit schönem Aussichtspunkt für den Sonnenuntergang. Sehr offene Gastgeber-Familie und alles war sehr sauber. Kann es bestens weiterempfehlen.

Wir waren in einem Cabin direkt in den neuseeländischen grünen Hügeln. Für uns eine der besten Unterkünfte in Nordneuseeland!
The property was in a beautiful location
Wir hatten den oberen Stock im Wohnhaus ganz für uns alleine. Die Anfahrt zum Haus war schon ein Erlenbis. Sehr nette Vermieter.
ワイトモケーブに近い 星空が美しすぎる(テカポよりも綺麗なくらい) テラスからの風景が素晴らしい
想像以上に場所が分かりにくい。日没後だと辿り着けなかったかもしれない。 日没の3時間前の到着がお勧め。
view!!!! majestic
Absolutely beautiful location with fantastic views and a gorgeous spot to sit & enjoy a glass of wine watching the sunset. Also saw the sunrise from bed! How cool! Jamie was so welcoming...as was Colt the dog and the ducks!
Nothing at all really. To be REALLY picky... perhaps a little chilly first thing but soon warmed as the sun rose.
The scenic views are amazing! Caught the sunrise. Lovely welcoming committee by the family dog. Cabin was comfortable, warm at night.
Nothing, loved our stay!
What a gem. The cabin is cute, clean and comfortable. Absolutely stunning scenery at the top of the hill at sunset and sunrise.
The drive up the hill the first time can be a little intimidating.
Jamie and family were very welcoming and friendly. Location was superb with breathtaking sunrises. Accommodation was very comfortable, clean and quiet. Would highly recommend.

The family, Jamie and Grant, are friendly hosts who welcomed us into their home. They live in a rural location with their dog and two children. The upstairs area is just for guests with its own breakfast area, but we were free to use the kitchen and patio area. We could help ourselves to a simple breakfast of cereals, toast and jams, yogurt, coffee and tea in the morning. It is quiet & peaceful. If you are visiting Waitomo Caves it is only about 6 kilometers away with a couple of places to eat. The house is in a beautiful setting.
Be aware, especially if you aren't used to narrow roads or driving on the left, that the roads can be a bit challenging and are best driven in daylight.
Nadarra Hideaway was just what we needed for 1 night before we went to Waitomo Caves. (Just 10 minutes away) Beautiful views in the evening and then sunrise in the morning right out the front door!! Jamie was a wonderful & warm host. We would definitely recommend Nadarra Hideaway!
Loved everything!
Excellent hideaway, quiet farm house surrounded by rolling hills and nature. Loved everything about it. Property owned by a very nice and friendly family, living on the ground floor. Colt (their dog) was exceptionally welcoming :-) Breakfast cereal and milk in the fridge was a nice touch. And we even go to see ducklings, thanks to owner's children!
Just a 10 minute drive out of town, this is a hidden gem. The bungalow is thoughtfully situated on the larger property so that it feels secluded and has a gorgeous view of the surrounding area. We loved leaving the doors completely open and enjoying the view from our bed. We also enjoyed breakfast under the shade of the thoughtfully placed umbrella, small table and 2 chairs. It was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. It was nice to have the breakfast in our room and available whenever we wanted to eat.
The only things that would improve this would be some fresh fruit or hard boiled eggs with breakfast. The wifi was slow and spotty but it didn't bother us too much. The view made up for it.
Absolutely stunning location, lovely room and bathroom. Great hosts and lovely to have breakfast included!
Camera accogliente e pulita, staff gentile e accogliente
Colazione da migliorare
Ich wurde von den Gastgeberin äusserst herzlich empfangen und habe mich vom ersten Moment an willkommen gefühlt. Mir wurde alles in Ruhe gezeigt und erklärt, sodass ich mich sofort gut zurechtfand. Das Zimmer sowie die Gemeinschaftsräume waren nicht nur sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet, sondern auch aussergewöhnlich sauber und gepflegt. Man merkt, dass hier viel Wert auf Details und das Wohlbefinden der Gäste gelegt wird. Besonders schön ist auch der wunderschöne Garten, der eine sehr entspannte Atmosphäre schafft und perfekt ist, um zur Ruhe zu kommen.

Vi havde hele første sal til rådighed, med to værelser, toilet/bad og et lille opholdsområde i åben forbindelse med familiens køkken og tv- stue nedenunder, som Jamie opfordrede os til at bruge som vi havde lyst til. Morgenmaden var fin continental, placeret i vores lille køleskab ovenpå, og bestod bl.a. af flere slags hjemmelavet marmelade. Værelser, toilet og bad ligeledes rigtig godt, beliggenhed unik, med fantastisk udsigt, Jamie og familien super søde, og børnene var stolte over at vise deres tamme baby løbeænder frem. Spændende at besøge en familie, der bor lidt afsondret og arbejder på at være næsten totalt selvforsynende på alle områder.
Der var absolut intet som efter vores mening kunne være bedre !
De locatie , uitzicht , gezellig, privacy, mooi, eenvoudig maar heel goed
Ik miste een smart Tv.
Loved the beautiful surroundings! Lovely family and all around great place to relax and enjoy nature.
Beautiful views and hosts!
No screens on windows. Just not used to this, so it posed some challenges.
Breakfast was just what we needed, and location is excellent.
Sehr schöne Hütte in ruhiger Lage mit traumhafter Aussicht. Gutes Frühstück.
The host was amazing and very accommodating with our schedule. The view was absolutely stunning, we wish we booked more than 1 night.
The only complaint i can think of is more of a personal taste thing but the breakfast wasn't something we were interested in
We had a great one night B&B stay at Nadarra Hideaway - lovely hosts. Great rooms and beautiful location - very convenient for the Waitomo caves. Our children loved playing with newly hatched ducklings and playing football in the garden in the evening. Highly recommend
Nothing to mention
Our hosts were so welcoming and accommodating even though we arrived late. The property and grounds are beautiful and secluded and our bedrooms and bathroom were spotlessly clean. Bread, cereals, milk, yoghurts and tea and coffee facilities were very welcome and we had use of the host's kitchen if needed. Our kids loved meeting other children and were especially taken by the hand reared ducklings! This was a peaceful and beautiful spot and very convenient for the caves and gloworms - thank you so much!
Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer...
Wonderful location and hosts! Breakfast hit the spot! Their dog was sooooo cute!
Nothing.
Una vera oasi di pace immersa nella natura e con tanti animali. Host carinissimi, gentilissimi e accoglienti, è un alloggio perfetto per riposarsi e dormire in serenità. Buona colazione inclusa.
Niente, lo spazio è condiviso con i proprietari ma sono assolutamente rispettosi della privacy e non è stato un problema.
In the middle of nature, super quiet and lovely welcoming hosts
Cabin was very tastefully decorated. Very friendly and helpful hosts (it was a plus to meet their lovely dog). Nicely arranged breakfast. Amazing view on the countryside with many beautiful birds flying around.
Maybe the room was a tad small. It would have normally not been an issue, but we are carrying quite a few suitcases on this trip.
Die Farm ist sehr schön und ruhig gelegen und hat einen tollen Ausblick auf die umliegenden Hügel. Es gibt auch einen kleinen Aussichtspunkt hinter dem Haus. Du lebst bei einer total lieben Familie und ihrem Hund Colt. Ella und Dale haben uns ganz stolz ihre Entenbabys gezeigt und wir durften sie streicheln, was richtig schön war :) Jamie stellt ein Frühstück mit Muesli, Milch, Toast, Marmelade, Butter und Joghurt bereit. Die Waitomo Caves sind nicht weit und nach Otorohanga, für Supermarkt etc. sind es nur 10 Minuten Fahrt. Wir waren leider nur eine Nacht auf der Durchreise dort, aber wären sehr gerne länger geblieben.
The wooden cabin is very cozy and in the middle of beautiful nature. A little fridge was already prepared with a lovely breakfast we enjoyed the next morning. It is a perfect spot to watch the stars at night, get some really good sleep and listen to a summer rain with an absolutely spectacular view. Jamie and Grant are great hosts and gave us some nice tips around the area and on our following trips. Totally would recommend and wished we could have stayed longer!
Wyjątkowe miejsce, piękną okolica.
Nice family hosting us! Quite a different experience! We love the room and surrounding environment
Cabin had a beatific view and was very clean. Host was responsive and had great local recommendations.
Expected more of a proper breakfast (cereal, milk, small yogurt, and bread were provided in cabin fridge) and really wish there had been an option for coffee other than instant coffee.
Alles.
Very peaceful, people were friendly, cosy and little studio, amazing surroundings, great breakfast,...
How peaceful it was. Waking up to the sound of birds and a beautiful view was like being in paradise.
Nothing.
Great location. Feeling of being remote but close to town. Stunning landscape. Cabin was immaculate, clean and had everything I needed. Continental breakfast was yummy, especially the jams. Easy to find and had parking and wifi.
There was nothing to dislike.
L accueil très aimable le lieu magnifique belle chambre
Tout était parfait Jamie et Grant sont très gentils et leurs enfants aussi Le lieu est magnifique avec les collines , les moutons …. C’est un petit havre de paix pour faire une pause pendant le road trip. Proche des villages voisins également et a 10 minutes des Waitomo Caves
Rien ! Tout était top
Herziges Cabin, mitten im Nirgendwo. Traumhafte Lage, sehr ruhig!
Nadarra was a lovely place to stay. The accommodation was clean and roomy. Jamie was a wonderful host opening their home to guests. I loved seeing the one-day old lambs and feeding the ducks. Breakfast of cereals and toast, with tea and coffee was great.

Great welcome by Jamie who took care to ensure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The cabin is very comfortable, warm, and cosy with a good breakfast provided. Location is great for those who are looking for a complete break in a peaceful and green environment. Highly recommended.
Nothing. Everything was good.
落ち着けました
場所を 見つけにくかったです
We had a wonderful stay. The hosts are delightful, the setting is stunning, and the accommodation is clean and comfortable. Lovely dog and farm animals.
Absolutely stunning farm. The view was incredible and we were even shown how we could see Mt Ruapehu in the distance. Facilities were great, we were warm and comfortable. Such a lovely family, our daughter really enjoyed spending time with the kids!

Absolutely wonderful family to stay and chat with. Ella and Dale were amazing children and taught us a lot about the animals on their farm. The check in instructions were clear and accurate and Jamie and grant were both very nice.
It was great, the only thing that might improve it is a slight increase in segregation between the areas so it doesn’t feel like we are disturbing the family.
タクシーのドライバーを事前に教えてくれたり、とても親切だった。

Jamie was lovely and welcoming, I loved having Colt the dog welcoming us onto the property. And thankful she allowed us to stay in the cabin though I booked to stay in her house was very kind.
Home away from home. Gute Verkehrsanbindung zwischen Wellington und Auckland, guter Startpunkt für Wanderungen und Erkundung der gesamten Region. Man fühlt sich zuhause und kann nach einem Tag voller Entdeckungen ausruhen. Jamie und Grant und ihre Familie sind die besten Gastgeber und wir sind dankbar, dass wir im Nàdarra Zeit verbringen durften.
Location and views were excellent. We enjoyed the sunshine on the hill and listening to the birdsong in the monring. The little gas fireplace was great and efficient. The perfect cabin for us two to rest and recouperate after a few hours of rafting. We appreciated the booklet of information.
We found the wall attachements that kept the outdoor umbrella quite squeaky/noisy at times but this was a minor issue and most likely unavoidable
Location and it was very clean and comfortable
Sorry the heating was not very good or safe. Heating ran out at midnight the first night and we had to wait till it cooled down, to fill it up again and relight. I know we were not supposed to keep it on overnight but it was too cold to do that. Suggest a gas heater run from a refillable gas bottle would have been safer and warmer.
Lovely family The daughter will tell you all about the animals living there. Any questions you might have, they're there to answer them. The rooms are real nice and comfortable. There's a little walk up the hill for an even better view of the sunrise or sunset.
Beautiful views, great spot for stargazing, close to Waitomo Caves, friendly hosts, good continental breakfast.
The bed was a bit too firm for me. The cabin has an ethanol fireplace that heats it well, but for your safety you need to turn it off overnight. So, if you're visiting in winter, be prepared for a very cold night.
Location, view, the quiet. Jamie and her dog were delightful.
N/A
We wanted to experience a farm stay during our trip and nadarra gave us just that. We had chicken, sheep, cow and a rolling landscape all in one stay, and including 2 lovely children.
