Michelle has thought of everything! She was very helpful with advice for what to do in Hokitika, everything suggested was fantastic.The homestead is absolutely beautiful, and has a wonderful story behind it. We felt at home immediately, and the farm animals were a huge bonus.We only stayed a night, and all agreed we wished we could stay longer. Of all the places we stayed in New Zealand, this was #1. Thank you, Michelle!

Michelle and Garth's farm is very remote and quiet but only a short drive away from Hokitika. Adorable farm animals, lovely big room, scrumptious homemade breakfast and clean bathroom. Definitely visit the Glow Worm Dell after dark on SH6 and enjoy a meal at the Beachfront Hotel Oceanview restaurant.

Good location in the countryside near Hokitika, a convenient base to explore the surroundings and the glaciers. Big room perfect for families, with a large private bathroom on the same floor.

Really lovely house, lots of cool quirky things to look at. The bathroom has a lovely claw-foot bath! The bedroom is huge, easily big enough for all 4 of us. Really interesting ornaments and souvenirs, all set out on upcycled shelves, eclectic mix of furniture and vintage bits and pieces. Super-comfortable beds, toys and books for the kids, homemade muesli and yoghurt from the farm. fresh fruit and Havana coffee all in the room! Perfect distance from Hokitika.. easy drive to town for dinner.

My family of 4 had an enjoyable 2 night stay at the Blue Spur Farmstay. Michelle and her husband Garth are very sincere and welcoming hosts with an in-depth knowledge of the area. They gave us excellent recommendations on places to visit and dine. We also enjoyed interacting with the friendly and funny animals on their property :) A wonderful option if you are looking for accommodation in the area!
