Lyn was a lovely host and made us feel very welcome. The room had everything we needed and the bed was comfortable. Perfect location for the amazing nighttime bush walk and glow worm caves.

So peaceful. I've always liked city life but maybe living on a farm is the way to go! Loved all the animals and watching the cows from my bed. Good bed and the cabin was cosy.

I loved my stay at this gorgeous, well maintained farm. As you drive in you can feel the love for detail that went into every corner. The older gentlemen gave me a hearty welcome. The room and the bed was comfy. (in particular the super cozy woolen blankets made we wanna stay in bed the morning). Communal shower&toilet was in camping style but clean. Wifi worked like a charme. The cabins don't have electricity, so lighting ain't the greatest, and the one charging point in the communal area is switched off after 10 pm. So I struggled a bit with working on my laptop and keeping my phone charged. But that's a minor thing. Here you really just want to sit on the little porches and sip a cold beer to wind down while watching sheep, ducks and stunning sunsets. ♥️

The staff were absolutely lovely. Lyn gave us some suggestions of additional activities we could do and offered to book us dinner. The location was great. A short walk away from the Waitomo Caves tour entry. Breakfast was simple but yummy and Lyn made sure we had everything we needed. The room and bathroom were very clean.

We loved staying at the chalets! The hosts are so lovely and kind and helped us with everything. The rooms are spacious and very clean. You have everything you need and you could also use the shared kitchen of the hostel if you like. The location is great if you plan cave activities.

The owners Richy and Lyn were so lovely and from the second I arrived made me feel so welcome. They had lots of info about the surrounding areas and where to eat etc and nothing was too much trouble for them. Highly recommend. Lovely room with stunning views and very clean. Great location to walk to the restaurants and bar.
