Sophie’s group were young and lots of fun. Very respectful to my property. They can come back anytime. Kaye
Kaye was a wonderful host. The house was nice a spacious. We had 12 guests staying and felt we still had ample space. The kitchen was very large. Check in was easy and there were plenty of places to sit. Parking and check-in was quick and I got a tour as well to show the important information. Would recommend to anyone looking for a large house in the Bombay/ Pukekohe region.

Nice but slightly disappointed
Beautiful location and nice property - the only reason why i wouldnt go back again is that the owner or manager was slightly racist .. She had obviously seen my name was not a traditional European name, although i was born here in NZ and she sent me a message the night before check-in advising me "no curries to be cooked in the house". Would upload a screenshot if i was able.. Secondly no keys were given for the property (maybe she didn't trust me coz im brown?) In addition she also insisted that i provided credit card details and then wrote down my personal credit card information on some bit paper - even though accommodation was paid for in full via bookabach. Upon arrival she even asked what my group of friends would be eating as she really wanted to make sure i wasn't going to cook curry.... Im also guessing she may have been suprised i was the only Indian on the stay and that i had a Kiwi accent...Cheers for the hospitality.
After living in the city for 17 years, it was like ‘coming home’ when Kaye Maxwell purchased a 19 acre farm in 2000. Set in a very beautiful part of the Franklin countryside, Kaye has since transformed ‘the farm’ into the stunning 9 hole boutique golf retreat that it is today! Her family home is now a guest house with 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and lots of living space with indoor and outdoor flow. 9 hole golf course and separate Clubhouse with cafe is a bonus.
"At age 40 I knew it was time for a change. After playing competitive golf for 25 years I wanted to help people learn to play; offer the chance to have fun with golf and forget the rules for a while. I wanted people to feel and hear the countryside while they did so - just as I was able to do while growing up in the Mangatawhiri Valley."
The Clubhouse is the hub of the property offering a warm and friendly environment with indoor training facilities and Golf Simulator, Pro Shop, cafe/bar, conference/function facilities, with onsite B&B accommodation.
The 9 hole golf course is a challenge for all - with Championship tee's through to beginners tee's. The course is affiliated to NZ Golf, for women, men and juniors offering 9 or 18 hole handicaps.
Maxwell's is a popular destination for coaching (indoors and out), membership, meetings/functions, social club outings, girls and guys day out packages ... and so much more Maxwell's Golf Retreat is situated only 30 minutes south of Auckland City, just five minutes from the Bombay Hills motorway interchange. It offers a peaceful setting at the end of a country lane with views out over the countryside. We welcome your visit.
