Barbara and Steve are really fantastic and welcomed my family with great hospitality. The farm is very big with ten of thousands of cattles. Steve kindly drove us to his farm on his 4WD and shown us one of his routine on the field. It was our first time to see in close range how a real farmer did his job in a real farm rather than some commercial settings. The home was clean, very well insulated and warm. Breakfast was provided by Barbara early in the morning and it was fabulous. We enjoyed a long chat with Steve about all sort of things from rural life, science, politics to farming. I highly recommend this place, especially those who plan to go for a road trip in South Island. It was pretty easy to locate as it is close to the state highway. Thanks again Barbara and Steve. It's truely an unforgettable experience.
