My sister and two nieces stayed from Auckland. It was a wonderful break with treasured family. We only used the hot tub once as we were so busy. Highly recommend.

Beautiful spot & lovely accommodation which Clare & Simon have thoughtfully kitted out. From a cracking BBQ to phone chargers and cozy spots to curl up with a book or soak in the fabulous scenery. It is magical & close the bike trail. book or soaksoak in the

We used the house to explore Nelson and Abel Tasman National Park, but actually thought it would have been nice to have more time to also explore the area close by. The house is nice and spacy for two people with a great view from the living room sofa. It was calm and quiet and we were able to relax after the busy days outside. We had a great time there and would love to come again. Thanks Emma and Hayden also for the support to get our flat tyre repaired. The garage you recommended did an amazing job.

From the greeting, to the wonderful accomodation, you knew that you were a guest, not a customer. Mary & Paul provide everything that you need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Great views from the deck and a walk around the farm highlight what a special place they have. We will be back.

The pool is the crowning glory, long enough to do some lengths and always in the sun! Well furnished with good size living area, bedroom and ensuite shower. The bedroom doesn’t get much natural light. There is no washing machine or oven so might not suit longer stays. Erik and Martine were wonderful hosts

Property is tastefully and thoughtfully equipped. Within easy driving distance of Moutere pub and various wineries. And of course, Mapua and Motueka. We had a most enjoyable several nights' stay. Thanks to Colleen.
