Very clean. Large rooms. Great how shower. Secure.

We arrived mid-afternoon in the depths of the NZ winter to a warm home and equally warm welcome. The building is a remarkable and unique building made largely of wood, built, assembled and constantly innovated upon by the skillful hands of Dewi and his equally lovely wife Jen. Although we’d booked the loft, they allowed us to choose whichever rooms we wished for privacy in order to maximise our comfort, a recurrent theme of our stay. Although a little way out of the region’s main town of Matamata, its location on a back road guaranteed an absolutely silent - and very dark - night, perfect for that night’s rest city people didn’t realise was possible, with an amazing opportunity for stargazing to boot. Given our intention to visit Hobbiton, it was also a short drive there and back. Quiet · Great value - Rooms Extremely comfy and spacious, with ample beds and constant warmth from the fireplace that pumps heat through the house. Pitch black once the lights are out, and totally silent, making for an incredible night’s sleep. Nearby activities - Hobbiton - south of Matamata. Visits to the largest waterfall in NZ, visible from the back window of the kitchen. Easy access to one of NZ’s great trails, just east of the property. Noteworthy details - We woke to fresh baked nutty seed loaf in the oven and a huge wooden table covered in breakfast condiments. I’ll remember that bread and its texture for years. The bathroom was situated on a large solid concrete slab over the kitchen, kept toasty warm through the heated floor from the fireplace.

Everything about the property was amazing! The room, the breakfast, the cleaning. And the hostess (Emma and Steve) were amazing to us as well. They were so kind and very helpful.

Everything was perfect. Wish I was able to stay longer.

Everything! Terrific shower, quiet neighborhood, breakfast food provided, and proximity to Hobbiton!

This plane was fabulous! The property is so beautiful you could have a wedding there. Sue is a fantastic chef and we had an amazing breakfast. Our room was lovely and had a door to a wraparound porch overlooking the gardens and filled with the songs of the local birds. I highly recommend a stay here!

Beautiful location. Could’ve stayed much longer. Owners were very communicative and quick to answer questions!

Room was as described. Owner had other available units so they were able to move us when there was a problem with the unit we booked.
