Lynnie is a very attentive host and creates a unique and authentic rustic experience in one of the most beautiful towns in South New Zealand. Her welcoming and friendly greeting and special touches she added to our experience made the stay rank one of our favorites during our 2 week vacation. Her gardens with beautiful stream that you must cross to get to your secluded cabin make you feel you are in the movie Swiss Family Robinson. The authentic outdoor bath heated by a fire underneath the cast iron tub is a must do. Freshly picked flowers in our room, candles everywhere and the sound of small farm animals all added to this authentic venue. Don't expect a steril, fabricated kind of rustic experience - it is the real deal and so is Lynnie! Thanks for all your efforts to make our stay special Lynnie!
