Stayed Jan 23, 2026Brian and Val and their family are very helpful and friendly hosts. The house is set in a picturesque garden that creates such a peaceful and beautiful atmosphere. Inside, everything is very clean and homely, making us feel right at home. We were particularly impressed that everything used in the house has been chosen with environmental friendliness in consideration. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Stayed Jan 7, 2026Brian & Valerie are such friendly and wonderful hosts. The cabin was amazing!!! The peaceful surroundings, view and lots of cute animals and birds to keep us entertained. All the places we wanted to see were not far to drive to. We had a very relaxing and pleasant stay.

Stayed Jan 4, 2026We had an amazing night at the cottage, it was very peaceful and private, just what we wanted for a bit of time away. It was a really hot day and it would have been nice to use the deck a bit more, maybe a table with an umbrella for some shade would have been nice for the afternoon, and possibly a BBQ available for cooking outside would be my only suggestions, but we highly recommend the cottage, Valerie and Brian are great to deal with, we would love to stay again in the future.

Stayed Dec 30, 2025Lovely welcome by our hosts with a box of chocolates to celebrate the New Year, a nice touch, as was the milk in the fridge!! As the name suggests this IS a hideaway and a blessing to come and sit and relax away from life's hustle and bustle. Nice kitchen, bathroom and comfy bed. No curtains in lounge area so morning sun was a bit bright and warmed up the room quickly but the air con helped. Would love to visit again later in the year as it is only 2hours from Auckland.

Stayed Apr 17, 2025Secluded but not private, inside/outside flow, potentially outside overflowed too much into the inside, lovely host, building is great for family to completely disconnect from technology, books provided, but take your own games/cards etc, overall amenities were clean potentially due for a autumn deep clean, , setup for the one night stay, consider take own extra comforts.if multiple night stay.

Stayed Mar 26, 2025Gorgeous unit with everything required. The bed was super comfortable and wow the shower was amazing. In the kitchen was everything needed to prepare meals and even some herbs and spices. The stars were spectacular with the darkness around. So much better than watching tele. Waking to the bird song starts the day perfectlyWould thoroughly recommend if you want a stay away from the busy world.

Stayed Dec 31, 2024A Magical Night at this getaway propertyOur overnight stay at the property was nothing short of magical. Nestled amidst a serene woodland, the property offered a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the warmth that greeted us, hinting at the cozy sanctuary within.Inside, the place was immaculately clean and thoughtfully decorated with vintage furnishings and soft, earthy tones. The crackling fireplace in the living room created a delightful ambiance, perfect for sipping a cold beverage and unwinding. The kitchen was fully equipped, allowing us to whip up a hearty dinner, which we enjoyed at the charming wooden dining table while gazing out at the moonlit orchard through large picture windows.The bedroom was a dream—plush bedding, soft lighting, and a view of the stars through a skylight. It was so peaceful that we slept like babies, lulled by the gentle sound of crickets and rustling leaves. In the morning, we woke to birdsong and brewed coffee on the patio, soaking in the crisp, fresh air.The owners clearly put thought into every detail, further aiding us to escape from the bustle of daily life—a perfect blend of tranquility, charm, and comfort.We can’t wait yogetaway in natuhome

Stayed Oct 30, 2024This amazing rental is such a peaceful and private place to stay. We loved that it was off the beaten track and in such a beautiful surrounding. The accommodations had everything we needed. And the hosts, Brian and Val, were so kind and friendly. They gave us privacy, but were available to ask any question. We even enjoyed a short evening visit with tea and crackers with them. We had three adults in our party, and we loved everything about this rental. If you're looking for something special out in the countryside, we highly recommend this place!
