This was an absolutely fabulous stay in a beautiful location about 5 mins drive to Russell.
Everything was perfect especially the surrounds and a delicious breakfast. Our only regret is that we weren't there longer.

The cooked breakfast provided was excellent! A great choice of options, perfectly cooked and elegantly presented.
The location, being over 2 km out of town, was a little inconvenient as driving was the only option for going out for dinner at night. Up side of the location was scenic views and serenity!

The breakfast was very good and plenty of it. Room was very comfy, clean and tidy. The owners were friendly and very cooperative as far as recommending eating out in Russell. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable stay.
The waste drain from the shower was very slow. I pointed this out to Nigel. It was probably a partial blockage but Nigel said he would rectify it.

9.0 / 10.0
Carol and Nigel were very friendly and welcoming, sharing their local knowledge and also talking about their interest in art. They let us play with their dogs, Tara and Tilly, and let us see the view from their private verandah. Little welcoming touches, like the shortbread, were much appreciated.
The breakfast was very hearty and well cooked. There was quite a wide menu to choose from. The bed was comfortable and our room was spacious and tastefully decorated.
The only point I could find, as I told Carol, it would have been great if there had been a light at the start of the driveway. When we returned from having dinner, we couldn’t see the entrance to the driveway and drove straight past it.

Excellent service and food. Very friendly and accommodating people. Very quiet and peaceful listening to the birds.
They told to ask for anything if we didn’t have it. We didn’t need anything. But the offer was there.

The self contained unit, the location, the hosts, and the breakfast were all top class.
Loved the location - very quiet but not too far away from the “action” in Russell.

The property owners/ hosts were very welcoming. The location was one of the best we have ever stayed. Their hospitality had a personal touch which was great. The breakfast served was five star quality with amazing views to enjoy at the same time. We definitely recommend people to visit this beautiful place and meet the lovely couple( owners)and their cute dogs. We will definitely revisit them. Thank you for making our stay wonderful. Kartik, Richa and Buddy.
