Beautiful property, quiet, cozy and close to Havelock North

We stayed at this amazing property with our family. We were surrounded by beautiful scenery and loved our time here. Lots of room and it was super cosy and quiet. Cam and Kate were really easy and great to deal with. We would stay here again!

It’s a beautiful and quiet house suitable for a big family or several couples.

This house is huge and very quiet. The manager is very friendly and nice to deal with, making our stay even more enjoyable. The swimming pool was the highlight for children and adults to enjoy. Great.

It is delight watching extended family groups enjoy our property so much. The expansive rooms and en-suite bathrooms are enjoyed by those wanting their own space; and the lounge and dining areas are large enough to accommodate everyone for get togethers.

Spacious property ideal for family and friends

Gorgeous quiet spot with ample space. This place is huge! We didn’t use half the spaces - (formal dining and lounge) as opted to sit and eat outside and enjoy the view. Misunderstood the listing and didn’t realise there would be other people in the cottage beside the homestead sharing the pool and spa facilities. Thought it was an optional add on if the number of people required the extra space. Would stay again.

Great place for family gatherings.

We thoroughly enjoyed the stay. Property had great space for a large group allowing for individual space and large enough rooms for everyone to gather. Great facilities. Luxurious enough without feeling uncomfortable and pretentious.
