This is a very cosy cabin. It was very comfortable, close to Cambridge with a comfy bed and a great shower. Parking was easy and right next to our room. Although it is close to a main road, you cannot hear it, and when we opened the curtains in the morning we had turkeys and alpacas outside which was really cute - backed up by a lovely countryside vista. Breakfast was in the room. Bread for toast, jam, butter, yoghurt, milk, muesli and cornflakes. There was even a tub of cookies.I was really only passing through, but if I went back to Cambridge I would be more than happy to stay here again.
If you arrive in the dark (as we did), you need to keep a good eye out for the property entrance as you head along the road. Not a complaint, just something to be aware of.

Great big room, loved having a sofa and table and chairs. Great selection of coffee and lovely brekkie. For the money it was a lovely stay.
The shower didn't fully work. The rain head bit was broken so you had to hold the shower head to make it high enough to wash your hair. A couple of the dining chairs were broken. Not quite like the photos...grounds need some upcoming.

Lovely view from our room, extra treat were the wandering lamas and turkeys. The homestead is nice.
The location, difficult to get to if travelling north, a mission to get to Cambridge, the constant traffic noise.

The rural nature. The animals wandering about
The entrance from the highway was rough. Glad we had an SUV. The sign on the highway needs to be BIGGER.

Very quiet. Alpacas were friendly
Old and run down. Blinds filthy. Very basic. Bathroom spacious and clean. Owner came into my room when i was out. Was shocked. On major highway. Very hard to get in and out.

The rooms and bathrooms were spacious and clean, and the property itself was beautiful. We had gorgeous views out our windows and were greeted by friendly alpacas. We loved the continental breakfast, tea and coffee provided in our rooms, as well as the towel warmers in the bathrooms and lovely views off our back porch. The Homestead is nestled in rolling green hills and we thoroughly enjoyed the location as well as our host.
The only drawback we experienced was getting to the property. It is located just off a divided highway, which means if you are coming from the east, you must travel past the location, exit the highway and re-enter on the eastbound side to be able to access the property’s driveway. This really isn’t a big deal, but Google Maps didn’t figure this out so after an already long drive, we drove another ten minutes out of our way trying to figure out how to gain access.

The location was convenient.
We stayed in the King Suite. On arrival there were spiderwebs and spiders throughout the room, including above the bed and on the wall behind it. The curtains were dirty with visible mud at the top and appeared not to have been cleaned for a long time. The bowls and cups in the room were full of dead bugs, so we didn’t feel comfortable using them. Due to these issues, we chose to leave early and stayed only one night instead of the two nights booked.

Very accommodating hosts, great breakfast options, comfy bed and a nice hot shower!
I arrived late and would have liked to see more of the homestead and meet the alpacas.

Nothing.
Limited unexciting breakfast. Missing fire alarm. Poor level of cleanliness. The advertised mountain view was in fact a Hills hoist . Very unimpressive.

Country side view from the room
The location was on main SH1 with centre barrier, so it was a bit of drive to make U turn to go back to Cambridge
There are no place for hung jackets.

It was peaceful, clean and well furnished. The breakfast provided was excellent.
The address was a little difficult to find as the entrance is right off the motorway.

owner was same nationality as my wife,the llamas were cute
Badly organised,we booked 2 suites but were offered one and a room in the farm house...as it was for our 19yo daughter we opted for two rooms in farm house so we could be close.The facilities were very old and unclean...the breakfast was a continental one but I had doubts on its freshness so we didnt partake..The bedding and linen certainly didnt have a fresh smell to them, quite the opposite.My wife thinks she detected tiny insects in bed

Much enjoyed the rural aspect with great views across the paddocks to the hills. Also, the ultra friendly Alpacas in the paddock alongside the unit who kept guard on us overnight.
The light breakfast provided was also appreciated in a nice well-lit unit with a deck and bbq table outside had the morning weather been better.
Access is a bit of a problem if you are driving towards Cambridge from the south or wanting to head north towards Hamilton, because of the mid road safety fence, requiring a 5 km diversion in the wrong direction to get back to square one on the right side of the road.
A small breakfast table in the unit would be helpful.

The Bed
Everything else, shower not clean,no smoke alarm,only marmalade on offer, couldn’t get the tv to work,the location, couldn’t wash the dishes properly due to no dish wash liquid, very noisy from motorway next to property

Rural outlook , the llamas
We had no towels to start with although when we text this was fixed . We found it had a musty smell and was a little dated

Super cozy and quiet location
Having alpacas at our back door and cows visible from the room was so fun
If you missed it the first time like we did off the highway you have to go very far down and back to do a U-turn
A bigger sign in the driveway might have helped

Drive way was almost to rough for cars especially near the gate.

The one staff person we met was very friendly and helpful. Llamas in the garden! Great view of the mountain.
It is right next to SH 1 so can be quite noisy, and the windows do not shut well.
Access is a very sharp turn off the highway, easily missed and a 2.5km detour if you need to turn back!
This also means that getting into Cambridge is a bit tricky. It is impossible to make a right turn onto the highway, which would be very dangerous even if it was allowed, so you have to turn left and then drive 2.4km to a turning place.

This facility was just out of town in the peacefull countryside. When we arrived we were met by a wonderful welcome committee of 3 very friendly Elpacas who all enjoyed a good pat and scratch of their ears ! The unit itself was warm and conformable with exceptional fittings and facilities - we could highly recommend this as a destination for a nice quite and comfortable stay at the end of a busy day
Everything was fantastic-

A nice country feel. Our room was part of the old homestead and was very large. Alpacas in the yard on the way to the room were friendly. Comfy bed.
The room smelled a bit musty. The shower was not in great condition. Some of the crockery wasn't clean, like it had been sitting unused for awhile and had gathered some dust.

Very clean ,well presented,lots of bedding to keep us warm.
The host was warm welcoming and helpful.
The alpacas and cow were a highlight,very friendly enjoying lots of pats.
Breakfast on the patio was a great bonus.
We missed the turning into the driveway,a bit tricky turning off a 100km rd.
Got it second time around !!

What a wonderful homely farm homestead you have 🐄🐮🐑🦙. 22minutes out of Hamilton. Owner friendly and helpful. Loved having Bobbie visit in the Morning along with his friends. Lovely having Cereal,Toast,milk,biscuits and preserves available. The unit had everything you would need with modern appliances. Also loved seeing the Cows walking past going off to be milked and also seeing the big Bull and sheep on the property. You could hardly hear the traffic its very quiet.. Bed was very comfortable also.. Aircon was great we had a lovely warm stay and the shower pressure was AMAZING. I would love to stay again.

We loved the critters at the place!! it was so much fun to share snacks with turkeys, llamas, and a bull. Also made for really interesting pictures.
It was kind of hard to get to.

The room was spacious and bright. There was an excellent heat pump. Everything was clean and well presented. Breakfast supplies were great.
Better signage would be helpful - it's a busy road so some warning about the B&B entrance would make it safer & easier to find.

It was a delightful experience to wake up to a beautiful scenery surrounded by alpacas and other farm animals. We had a fun time feeding and interacting with the alpacas. There are sheep and birds and also cows strolling nearby. Waking up to fresh air and beautiful sunrise is wonderful. The amenities are clean and decent. There are fruit trees like avocados, oranges, lemons and grapefruit. The owner is very friendly and hospitable.

The accommodation was reasonable. Nothing great but nothing awful.
It was difficult to enter the property from the main road in one direction. You have to drive a long way to get to where you can turn around as it is on a divided road.

Well set out, comfortable and tasteful unit. Great shower, close to Cambridge. Continental breakfast included, was a lovely bonus. Bed was a little firmer than what we are used to. Animals were lovely but just had to watch out for Turkey droppings where you walked.

Beautifully presented self contained room with on suite bathroom. Alpacas & Turkeys in the garden were lovely and they made very little noise at all. Plenty of milk in the fridge for tea, coffee and cereal.
I can't provide anything as I was very impressed all round.
2.0 / 10.0
Basically the only partially good thing was the novelty of having Llamas in the garden.
We stayed in a room in the main house. There's nothing good I can say about this place. Only two plug sockets. Curtains hanging off the rail. Window and frame dirty as was the appearance of the whole place. As mentioned in other reviews, the road sign for the property is too small and very easy to miss. CertInly not worth the money.
