Reviewed Apr 16, 2025This was the perfect place to collect thoughts, contemplate all the Blessings in life and enjoy the Kiwi countryside. Both Beven and Wendy were phenomenal hosts and I feel like I left as a member of the family. I appreciated their availability and overall pleasantness during the entire stay. Thanks!
I had to leave too soon...

Reviewed Mar 24, 2024Country bed and breakfast, but really didn't include breakfast. We had to go to the nearest town for groceries for breakfast. Room is a studio apartment attached to a garage separate from the house. No television (which we never used this trip anyway). WiFi didn't always work inside the studio. A small patio overlooking the sheep pasture with 6-8 sheep grazing. Parking right in front. Definitely a rural location, on a quiet paved road about 8-10 miles from the nearest town.
