A wonderful peaceful stay, Jenny & Andrew were great hosts and everything was just what we needed, we travelled with our 2 year old dog and she have a great time as well, the Highland Cows were magnificent, we would come back tomorrow, 5+ stars, Ashley
Surrounded by flower gardens and rolling hills this beautiful little country retreat was the perfect base for my Father and I as we explored our family roots in Oamaru/Waitaki. A short drive into town, but it felt like our own little world. Accomodation was spotless, an extra room/cabin (Lamb Inn) was made available to us so plenty of space for a family & Jenny made us feel most welcome.
My husband and I stayed overnight for a weekend getaway and were really impressed! Lovely cold water and orange juice in the fridge. Everything was thought of even bread, spreads, milk, butter and even tomato sauce! Peaceful, beautifully laid out, warm and cozy and a lovely hostess! Cute animals galore had the best nights sleep in ages! Thank you for a wonderful refreshing weekend retreat!
