My wife and our 16 month old daughter stayed there for one night.
The experience is just wonderful.
The 150 year building and garden itself is a place worth to explore. It looked like every detail of this place has a story, but we only stayed for one night and didn't have enough time to discover it.
The host Mary is very nice and friendly we together had a fantastic dinner. The three course meal she cooked was also very delicious and she also gave us lots of information about South Island based on our interests.
Mary also helped us to look after our child while we were doing the horse trekking.
This is place we definitely want to stay next time!
