Antony and Hannah are the best AirBnB hosts we have ever encountered and we have stayed at a lot of properties all around the world. They are warm and inviting and extremely helpful -- you really know that they are sincerely interested in making your stay extraordinary and are willing to go to any length to make you happy. They live nearby buy unless you require something you are left alone to enjoy the amazing farmhouse.
The property itself is isolated, or as they say in New Zealand, in the "wob wobs". Know that going in and plan to buy groceries in Kaikoura or Picton before arriving at the house. For us, the isolation of the property was a big plus. We were in the middle of rural New Zealand and the stars at night blew our minds. The ocean views and the private access to the beach was obviously great too! There are two word burning fireplaces in the home which makes it cosy at night and smells simply wonderful. Antony and Hannah keep plenty of wood and kindling on hand to make it easy. Can we talk about the gardens? They are 60+ years old and simply spectacular. There are a lot of ways to enjoy them with ample outdoor seating/dining and a curious absence of mosquitoes. The home is decorated like a home -- not a bunch of disposable furniture that is too common in a lot of AirBnB places. It is obvious that Hannah and Antony want their guests to experience what they once enjoyed in this farmhouse.
We could go on and on and on about this place. Visit and see for yourself. It was our favourite AirBnB stay by a mile, maybe two.
