Summary: This homestead is amazing! It was the perfect place for our family of 12. The bedrooms are great and there is plenty of space to hang out together. The kitchen also has all that is needed to feed a large group. The large grounds surrounding the house including the orchard and gardens are also wonderful. For the active ones in the group the walking trails are beautiful. We loved our stay. Jenny the host is easy to communicate with. There was nothing else we could have wished for!

Summary: Our host ensured the house was warm on arrival by lighting the fire in the light-filled lounge/kitchen. We kept the fire going throughout our stay, and it was lovely to come into the cosy house after exploring the surrounding gardens, or an afternoon enjoying the autumn sunshine on the deck. We'd all recommend this place for a weekend stay.

Summary: There really are no words to describe the magical portal that you step into at the Mataia Homestead. It is a true gem. We absolutely loved our stay and the opportunity to feel so relaxed from the moment we stepped through the doors. The lit fire place and the beautiful surrounding truly are breathtaking. We all slept well in our beds and enjoyed taking time to prepare food in the kitchen and being seated together at the dinning room table. The perfect place for a weekend away from the hustle and bustle. Can't wait to be back!!!!

Summary: Thank you for amazing comms, an amazing homestead and for exceptional service! Our 12 person team needed a home away from home to help affected farmers and landowners in the South Kaipara with the massive cleanup after Cyclone Gabrielle. Mataia Homestead and our hosts provided a beautiful place to stay that more than met our teams needs after a hard days work. Thanks you ☺️

Summary: A group of 8 adults attending a family wedding at Waterfall Farm - we were blown away by the enchanting garden and grounds. The Mataia homestead was completely lovely too - superb period details combined with modern kitchen and bathrooms. The bedrooms and beds were very comfortable. We enjoyed taking a hike to the quarry and back along the coast path - it was warm and sunny so we felt we had earned the cold beer at the end of the day! The house and it’s setting made the wedding even more special. Thank you Jenny and Shane
