The accommodation is good; clean and tidy with everything you need. The view and the gardens are lovely and so relaxing and peaceful. It was so nice to sit and hear nothing but the sounds of nature; cows, birds and the breeze. There’s no air or road traffic and no one else around... a big change from where we live. Although the accommodation is very rural, it’s only a 20 minute drive to Matamata or Canterbury where there are several restaurants to choose from. Hobbiton is only a 10 minute drive away. Highly recommended.
