Beautiful location and great kitchen for a family gathering. Our family had a great time here for a few nights, we visited the glowworm caves and just hung out in a quite country location. Lovely.

We enjoyed our stay here. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Kids loved the farm animals. Responsive and accommodating hosts. And it was a great location for a short break out of Auckland. Only issue was that it was quite warm in the house even with the AC on.

We loved our stay at this farm away from the city. It was spacious and there were room enough for 2 families. 11 people total. Kitchen is equipped that we were able to have 2 dinners here. My little kids loved collecting eggs and feeding the chickens. They named the cows, Milky Way and Oreo. Animals weren't noisy and we could sleep just fine. We took full advantage of the washer and dryer since we had lots of laundry to do. Anyways, I can't say enough good things about it. The views were breathtaking. I keep asking myself, can I move to New Zealand? Bravo. I wish we could have stayed longer.
