Mike and Julie were fantastic hosts during our one week family stay in Rangiora. From the cosiness of their home, with all the amenities required - the farm fresh eggs (in abundance), the fresh roses from their beautiful garden, to the hot water bottles on our beds! Even when we noticed there was no access to a DVD player, the very next day our hosts arranged one, which enabled us to enjoy some family movie nights, which pleased the kids! If you are looking for a home away from home, on a rural property amongst the sheep and other farm animals, and with a beautiful antique shop on your door step, then look no further than Mike and Julie's place!
