I absolutely loved my quiet and very rural 8 days at this really lovely location. I stayed 6 days as a solo guest with my 20 year old son joining me for the final 2 days. We both loved the area. The area would appeal to anyone who loves nature.
From each window of the large open plan room I could see trees, the garden and sheep!
The room was comfortable, and the kitchen area had enough space to cook proper meals. The bathroom area worked perfectly well too, with an excellent shower. Great WiFi too.
The bed was very cosy and comfortable, I slept very well.
All the linen and towels were great quality. When my son arrived, Gillian provided a single mattress bed set up for him.
Gillian’s responses with me pre and during the visit were always excellent and during the visit made sure I had everything that I needed and suggested ideas of places to visit. Gillian is a such helpful and cheerful person, who loves the area and life in New Zealand.
I visited all the main west coast beaches which are wonderful; wild and wavy!
The areas on the coast and inland around Muriwai are stunning. I just loved visiting the Gannet colony many times during my visit and the simply stunning Maori cove and the main Muriwai beach that is literally 10 mins drive from the homestead.
I highly recommend this area and homestead. It’s heavenly!
