If you're looking for an adventure & quirky place to stay, this is it! I cantacted the property through the website and WhatsApp for check in details, received no communication as to how to access the room. A gentleman appeared when we pulled into the yard and asscorted us to our room. He didnt show us how to use the keycode lock so we couldnt get back in the room. We left the window open and climbed back in. Which was entertaining but unnecessary. The room needed a very good clean, cobwebs everywhere and mucky curtains. There is a gate to open on the drive and low hanging trees. Iff you fancy an adventure and aren't too fussy, this place is great 😂

The room was so cozy and comfortable and we loved that the owner’s animals were so friendly. We were able to pet a cow and some alpacas. He even trained one of them to trade kisses for bread! 10/10 would stay again.

We stayed in a room in the old homestead which was a surprise as it didn’t match the photo on the website. The room was shabby but worse it was dirty. The bed was comfortable and the continental breakfast adequate. It certainly was not value for money and I could not recommend it to anybody else. Entry was through a spring loaded gate with loose chicken wire which snagged on clothing. It was a very unsatisfactory experience

Breakfast was a convenient, serve ourselves affair. Only downside was access to the gate required U-Turns at designated turn areas, due to the main road median barriers (obviously nothing the owners can change, but information on the issue before arrival would be useful)

Waking up to misty mountains in the distance was a way to start to the day. The animal friends in the yard was a bonus. It’s a cute, quiet place which allows you to relax and enjoy the world around you.

Alpacas were cute but…..

The outlook from our room was sheets on the washing line. The property manager attacked the alpacas with a broom. He saw me watching but carried on. Lots of flies. They were immune to the fly spray. Very dirty under the microwave and behind the TV. No cloths or bath mat provided

Must stay property

Amazing stay! The accommodations were clean and comfortable. There isn’t reception but check in was clear and easy. We had some nice bites ready for our breakfast. If you like animals, there are lots to see around the property. The host was helpful and friendly. We had a great stay and would definitely come back again. Highly recommend!

Comfortable and homely

This was a short, two night, stay. Check in was very simple, the room was exactly as described. We loved the homely atmosphere with a beautiful view over farmland. There was everything we needed for an enjoyable stay and most importantly, a very comfortable bed.

Kissing alpaca right outside your door!

The apartment was located on a farm. We woke up to alpaca outside our room and the view was lovely. The room was comfortable and the host was gracious. Our only issue was the lack of reliable wifi. It was hit and miss.

I was surprised by the amount of farm animals at the property but they were all lovely to interact with. Theres an alpaca there who will give you a kiss but be careful he will also nibble you if you allow it.
