I stayed with my family at Margaux’s place as my sister was getting married at Hobbiton. The house was very spacious for 4 adults and well appointed, for most things you could need. Coffee pods, milk, butter, and muesli in the kitchen. We were a little cold, and were happy to discover the air conditioning unit that heated the whole house very nicely, given we weren’t sure how to use the fire.
The house can be a little difficult to spot as it’s along a main road (where the speed limit is 100km) and signage wasn’t that clear. Arriving at night meant we were pulled up in the driveway for a few minutes unsure if it was the right house or not! There was also a few bugs, mostly flies and moths, so good to keep the windows shut.
The washer and dryer was a real bonus, and the Manuka honey face mask was a nice treat. I do wish we had more towels, and the house does seem a little unfinished in places, but overall a nice stay.
