Elaine and Alan are the most wonderful and eco conscious hosts we have ever had ! They live in a wonderland!
Was the perfect retreat /getaway , we ended up staying an extra day as we loved it so much and didn't want to leave! Their luxurious yurt is situated in the most picturesque fairytale landscape , rolling hills and lush pasture with spectacular views and beautiful lakes abounding, huge basalt rocks indented by ancient kauri sap scattered throughout the forest and grass land also add a magical quality, The yurt is complete with everything you could need for a super comfortable stay, from a lovely big bed to an highly efficient wood burner which provided all the cosy warmth we needed, they even have a natural hot tub outside so you can bathe under the stars , it's heated via an inbuilt wood burner and is filled with pristine spring water sourced from a nearby spring as is all the water on site, you also have your own kitchen with complimentry delicious organic home made museli, eggs and other wholesome breakfast items, hot shower and advanced eco compost toilet.
Elaine is unbelievably warm, generous and accommodating and ensured we had a very special Stay,
She came over several times with lovely produce from the garden and eggs.
Highly recommended to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat /time out to renew ones self in nature
We will certainly be back
Thank you for everything!
James and Lara
