"Cute, clean simple cottage in quiet farm area. Great kitchen/BBQ and living space for a family. Hosts were good communicators. Great value. Close enough to wineries etc but brilliant for getting away from it all too. "

"Wonderful stay, so close to beach and a lovely river. A very special property with great outdoor living.Peaceful separated bedrooms and the lounge/kitchen/diner is amazingly stocked with everything needed and a special touch for us was a Christmas Tree! Seven of us stayed, we boogie boarded in perfect waves, kayaked up the river, stunning scenery. Such a happy stay and the hosts are very friendly and helpful."

"We had a wonderful time here. The house was clean, cozy and cute, and the location is absolutely stunning. I do think it’s important to note that there was a pamphlet in the cabin which had a pretty heavy emphasis on the hosts’ Christian faith. As a queer couple, this was a little uncomfortable for us. Personally, I feel that it would be more professional to keep business and religion seperate. However, the hosts were very polite and helpful and definitely didn’t make us feel uncomfortable at...

"Had an amazing stay at Savana Estate! Both Pip and Sarge were super accomodating with every small request. The rooms were very nicely presented and having the pool there to cool off after a hot day was perfection!
Only thing it’s missing would be air con in the room but having a fan on over night seemed to do the trick.
Only a short drive to Havelock North but also had a BBQ which we took full advantage of so we didn’t have to nominate a designated driver in the evenings.
Would definitely...
