A breathtaking home and property. Highly recommend staying here. The rooms, the view, the decor, the claw foot tub, everything was magical. We were a little disappointed the washer was broken but not enough to give this property anything other than the highest recommendation to fellow travelers and locals alike.

Staying at the country manor was an absolute treat. It is a beautiful, spacious and heritage-inspired home with an abundance of rustic charm, inside and out. The house has everything you would need for a comfortable stay and we were delighted with the thoughtfully curated vintage decor that gives the home real personality. Caren, our host was friendly and extremely thoughtful, eager to help out with all our needs and requests. We definitely highly recommend especially if you are considering a visit to the nearby Hobbiton

Staying at the Stream Side Country Manor is a ABSOLUTE MUST. It’s not just a stay, It’s an experience like no other. If you are thinking of going to Hobbiton then this place is the perfect retreat. The house is full of character, built using 10th century carpentry techniques the joints and beams are held together with pegs. It is cosy and stylish, a beautiful house in a wonderful farm setting. I would absolutely stay here again!

This house is just gorgeous! Beautiful wood and so tastefully presented. Our children and grandchildren arrived just after we had lit the fire, it was warm and welcoming and a magical start to a family weekend. Enough bedrooms for us all and so comfortable. The weekend was full of activities, golf just down the road, Hobbiton for the teenages, and I had the beautiful gardens to explore with the grandchildren. Highly recommend this accommodation, we had a wonderful time. The hosts Caren and David were just lovely. We will all be back!

A Perfect Country Escape!We had such a wonderful stay at Streamside Country Manor! The house is spacious, beautifully decorated, and feels like a cozy home in the Shire. It was perfect for our family celebration plenty of room for everyone, a large dining table for shared meals, and a fully equipped kitchen that had everything we needed.The setting is just stunning — lovely outlook with expansive rural views, so peaceful and quiet, a real escape from the hustle of city life. We spent lots of time out on the covered patios and the kids loved running around on the big lawn.Great location too, right across from the golf course (hubby was desperate to escape and have a round)only about 20 minutes to Hobbiton, and close to walks in the Kaimai Ranges. We left feeling completely recharged and can’t wait to come back!

This home was a wonderful place to stay for our family of five as we explored the north Island. We used it as our homebase for three nights while we explored Rotorua and Hobbiton. The house were extremely kind and gracious, and they even had a fire going for us when we got to the house two of our three nights that we were there. They were extremely kind, and the house was wonderful. Very peaceful. Would highly recommend anyone staying in this area to stay here – you won’t regret it!
