Summary: Lovely garden and property, friendly owners. Handy to Maungatatari. Downside was no space to eat inside the units or for sitting. Shared kitchen is fine except that it is cold in the evening so not conducive to having a meal in this space. Also limited space for luggage but fine for short stay.

Summary: We had a wonderful time, enjoying the beauty of the surroundings and the bounty from the vegetable garden. Mary, Rosemary and Steve were all very helpful and informative. The outside but under cover cooking/dining area worked really well for the two couples in our group.

Summary: What a wonderful escape. The hosts could not have been more welcoming. The outdoor kitchen was perfect even when it was raining. Felt like a home away from home, and was very conveniently located to Lake Kirapiro where we had a festival, and close to Cambridge and Hamilton. If you need a relaxing vacation from your vacation this is the place!

Summary: The cottage has a beautiful setting and cute features. For a family of 3 it is just enough (double bed a bit tight for 2 adults) space for sleeping (#2). You can spread out in the shared kitchen in the evenings. Thank you to the 2 Mary's.
