We absolutely loved our stay at 5 o'clock Somewhere. With family coming to visit we needed space to spread out and there's plenty of that at this beautiful home. The house is beautifully furnished with so many interesting pieces to look at and the hosts have thought of everything to make it a memorable stay.The setting is just amazing surrounded by nature with plenty of birdlife. Ondy is so lovely and made us feel very welcome at her beautiful home. Highly highly recommend.

Vermont in the Wairarapa

Gorgeous modern home and artful landscaping. We were there in winter and it really did feel we were in the north east US with the trees and wee pond in front of the house. Such a change of scene is great for the soul and a restful break.

Wish We Could Have Stayed Longer

Totally enjoyable and relaxing. Loved the open fire and spa under the stars. If my car boot was bigger I may have tried to relocate the windmill ;-)We would love to return over the Summer months. I note the listing indicates 3 bathrooms, however there is only 2.

Family Fun Times

Great place for family and friends to stay. Loved the country feel. Very modern with central heating and fun lighting. Great for the cold winter nights. Hot tub - a lovely bonus. Beds could be a little more comfy, having said that we would definitely book property again. Happy to recommend. Thank you Mike and 5 O'Clock Somehwere.

Family weekend

Our stay at 5 o’clock somewhere was marvellous. What a beautiful place in a stunning location. You just want to put your feet up and never leave. Everyone had a great time from the kids feeding the fish to the rest of the family enjoying a few wines on a sunny autumnal evening outside surrounded by the stunning gardens and the peace an quiet of the rural setting. We could not have asked for more.

Exceptional home - what a privilege to stay!

We had an exceptional stay at 5 O'clock Somewhere. The property is beautiful and location very peaceful. We really appreciated the size and privacy of the property - it suited our family group just right. Both adult groups had their own wing of the house and bathrooms. We enjoyed coming together in the living and kitchen area. Thanks for also being pet friendly. Our little dog didn't wander, but for dogs that like to explore, important to note that the property is not fully fenced. We will definitely be returning!
