Yes our overall stay was lovely. Great hosts. We were provided with breakfast too. Would recommend to anyone who wanted to have a quiet retreat but close to places like Geraldine and Timaru.

Patricia and Gerard are great hosts. Very comfortable room with all we needed to make our stay enjoyable including a range of home made foods for breakfast. The property is set in a beautiful garden created by Gerard over several years. The location is ideal for a break in the journey from Queenstown to Christchurch. I would happily recommend a stay at this location.
