The pictures on AirBnB don't quite do this place justice. In a country of extraordinary views, this place may have them all topped. Chas and Dietlind are wonderful, generous hosts and their property is astounding. This is not a luxurious stay- it's something far better. A true working farm in the most spectacular mountain setting. There are horses, dogs, cows, ducks and of course sheep freely roaming the property. Plenty of beautiful scenery to explore or you can just sit on your patio and take in the view. It's serene and lively and soul-nourishing all at once. The sounds of 'moo's and 'baa's is oddly soothing. It's a trek to get here, as the write-up mentions, but what a wonderful trek it is. I'd gladly come back if I was ever back in town, and I hope to be. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to get away from everything for a few days and get a real taste for the New Zealand farm life.
