Piarere lake rentals

The Shed was roomy and comfortable with great entertainment (pool table, games, tv, books, feeding the animals), good breakfast provided, a lovely park next door and so close to town (lots of dining options) and also handy to Hobbiton, golf, hot pools. Maria was an amazing host who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and was so helpful with our dogs - we really enjoyed our stay.

Eight of us spent a weekend at this property and it was just perfect. The host was exceptionally welcoming and the villa was stunning. We made good use of the spa, enjoyed the fire place and explored the local area. We are keen to come back in summer to enjoy the bar area. Would highly recommend.

It is a great place to unwind from the hustle and bustle of the city. It is a peaceful and serene place for nature loving people. Sandra was prompt to answer any question I had. Definitely I will stay there again if I happen to travel that way.

The upstairs area was perfect for our stay and the owners of the nearby house let us watch the sun rises and sun sets from the viewing area just outside of their porch. Overall a lovely stay. Highly recommend!

This is the 2nd year we have stayed at Chalet in the Shire and it is still every bit as wonderful as our first time was. One the most comfortable beds we have ever slept on, clean and comfortable, a huge fenced grass paddock for the pooch to frolic in, plus breakfast items consisting of eggs, toast, jam, muesli, milk and fruit juice are stocked in the chalet upon arrival. The ice tray was full and a jug of cold water in the fridge ready to drink. It's this extra care that will keep us going back for years to come still. Thanks again Sarah.

We weren't quite sure what to expect, as we are not normally into the glamping style of accommodation. But we loved every bit of what this place had to offer. Peaceful, no TV, surrounded by nature, over looking lake, fishing rod, kayaks, BBQ, selection of fresh produce on arrival, no neighbours anywhere close, what more could you want for serious downtime. Being a bus it has 'bus' sized amenities so you have to be prepared for that. Having said that it had a full sized very comfortable bed. Also has bunks available. Being located in the middle of nature be prepared to have a few bugs, birds, rabbits etc running around, but that all adds to the charm. Loads of flat area for the kids to run around on or even the family dog (remember it is a working farm). We will be back next time we need more unwind time.

Place is very nice for holiday

This was a perfect fit for my parents and aunties visiting for the weekend. The hosts were amazing and accomodation was cozy and warm. Would highly recommend and will be visiting again for sure.
