Arle’s Nook is just that, it’s a little nook nestled amongst our slice of paradise.
From comfort & warmth of a newly built cabin you over look our small farm and have some amazing mountain views and some equally amazing sunsets. Peace & tranquility take over as you are far enough out of town, while actually only being 2 minutes from Temuka's Town Centre, 15 minutes from Timaru's Caroline Bay and Town Centres Cafes and Shops and 8 minutes from Fonterra's Clandeboye Site.

Arle’s Nook is Air Conditioned, has a Small Kitchenette, a Very Comfortable Queen Bed, a Bathroom with Shower, a Living Area with a fold out couch that can sleep an additional 2 if needed, and a Private Deck for enjoying a refreshment or two.

    Cancelled my trip but unable to communicate with the property because of the clumsy / unworkable Vbro booking system. , will avoid booking anything through those turkeys again

    Clean, beautiful and the perfect stay for our little family. The Host was easily contactable for any issues too. It’s a perfect stay! Just be prepared there is a very small fridge so can’t store too much:) Thank you for the amazing stay we got to a lovely home away from home here!

    Was perfect for us for the week. Easy short drive to Timaru golf course. Beautiful views of the mountains. Peaceful retreat end of the day

    Great hosts, busy with their farming lifestyle, genuinely intereeted in how to make our stay the best experience. Expedia noted that this farmstay is adults only but this is not the case. Our grand daughter would have loved it.

    Beautifully located on a farm within drivable distance to Geraldine, Timaru and surrounding areas. Spotlessly clean and a treat to be out of the hustle and bustle.

    Arles Nook deserves huge kudos. While the place itself is new, clean, tidy, private, and comfy it's the location and views of a working farm that are fabulous. Grab a glass of wine, sit at the picnic table on the deck and just watch nature happen. It's great! We'll be back for sure.

    We had difficulty in finding property as no signpost on road so had to ask neighbour for directions. Later found house number on post but rather small.On arrival rather disappointed as BBQ was dirty as was outdoor table setting so we could not sit outsideHowever, once inside we were delighted as everything was spotlessly clean and we appreciated the facilities provided.However, we could not find the password for the wifi which rather spoilt our stay as needed to use internet and didn’t have NZ phone SIM card.No interaction with host at all although I did knock door at main house and sounded car horn.Had to drive to New World to use free wifi which was not very satisfactory.However, the lovely comfortable bed made up for the other negatives

    Everything we needed and nothing that we didn't! The induction cooking hot plate is excellent. Great location, very private. Host very quick to respond.

    Lovely little bach. Warm, clean, well equipped. Perfect size and facilities for 2 people. 5min max drive to Temuka and 20mins to Timaru. Lovley rural outlook. Faces away from main property so plenty of privacy. We would definately stay again:)

    Graham's little cabin is perfect as we have family just down the road. Great to be rural and peaceful after a busy day. We will always stay here if available on our visits.

    The hutt is a prime location for a slice of a quiet farm escape. The driveway to the hutt is almost a min drive from the road so you must have a vehicle to drive here. The best feature is you have a great view of the mountains from the small deck provided that also has an outside table for you to have meals outside. There is just 1 entry sliding door that opens upto the open-plan lounge, dining and kitchen. The lounge sofa is also a pullout bed and the dining table has just 2 chairs that sits right under the TV and is directly over carpet which is prone to stains if you have kids. The bedroom is located on the left from the lounge with a big size bed and 2 small side draws. We arrived at night and things were looking great till we realised in the day time that the owners home was just located behind the hutt and a camera was facing vehicles that drive into the hutt or driveway which felt eerily. We were having a good time till it we checked out and i saw that i was requested by the owner to pay $800 for 2.5 hrs of cleaning, professional carpet cleaning and sofa and a replacement of a can opener which im sure hes found already and place was left in a reasonable state. The downside to this place is we washed and dryed the towels on our last night and forgot to take them out as we returned from the Laundromats late which meant we woke up late and had to rush to checkout on time and also catch our flights back home. It was only when we arrived at the airport did we find the towel
