My wife and I enjoyed our stay. The home we rented was situated in a quiet cul-de-sac and we were delighted with all the home comforts. We would recommend this for any couple.
Absolutely beautiful property with the most attentive details. So well laid out, every practical convenience provided and a great view of the mountain.
This place was really nice and comy, had everything you need, the surrounding trees and bish are really nice. Couldnt ask for anythkng more. Would definitely recommend and would stay again
This was a last minute search for accommodation to attend Te Matatini 2025 which was hosted in New Plymouth (as all accommodation options were sold out). I manage to secure this nice cosy small, but intimate accommodation on a lifestyle property. The view looked out to nice lush green farm paddocks and large trees with a glimpse of Mt Taranaki in the far distance. This accommodation was a sleep-out cabin on the same property as the host. It was easy to navigate from the city and the instructions from the host to locate the property on the semi rural road was simple. This place was perfect for our reason of travel and would make for an ideal weekend getaway. Communication was seamless! The host was responsive and considerate, ensuring our stay was comfortable.The space provided a family, homely vibe suitable for all couples. A 15min drive from the city centre.
Excellent everything. 50 minute drive to New Plymouth each day so early start and late return. Great to return home each night to a lovely home. Had everything we needed to relax after a hard day at "the office" - Matatini.
A home away from home. Clean, comfortable and true to online description and photos. Quiet, cozy and peaceful surrounded by greenery ensuring privacy.Lorraine and Glynn are excellent hosts demonstrating warm welcoming care through all communications and upon arrival. They were super considerate about communicating location, directions and key availability if for evening arrival. Ample off-road parking and generous consideration for our wee whānau and two vehicles.We were there for seven days and the kāinga was a sanctuary with ample cooking facilities, filtered water and kind gestures of tea, coffee, milo condiments and milk in the fridge. Highly recommended hosts and lovely accommodation. Definitely a kāinga we will book again upon returning to Taranaki. He mihi nui, He mihi mahana.
