Absolutely fantastic 5 star
Mike and Julie are attentive, thoughtful and truly excellent hosts. This was our 2nd stay at the lavender farm and we wish we had booked for longer. Two adorable dogs and a very friendly cat were equally as attentive!!!! Julie’s home baked bread, pancakes and crepes were a delight. Highly recommended. John & Jackie Cornell 30 Oct - 3 Nov 24

Trip with the olds
Took my parents for a short trip whilst they were visiting from UK. My mum loves lavender so found this place. Well the lavender was the draw but the place was the jewel in the crown!!! Amazing views. Julie and Mike so friendly, extra effort made as mum gluten free!! Loved the lavender products, great to be able to buy some to take home. Will definitely be back.

Unique Accommodation
The combination of the stunning outlook and beautiful scent of lavender makes this a wonderful place to de-stress. My son loved feeding the alpacas and running down the rows of lavender. The lavender products are amazing. I think the hosts were very generous given the time and effort put into making our stay enjoyable. The only con would be the wind and other sounds kept my husband awake but he is a sensitive sleeper.

Lavender Farm with friendly pets
The owners who live in the adjacent house on the lavender farm are so welcoming. Their extremely friendly dogs and one of their cats came to greet us on the grounds as we arrived. My mom loved the lavender products that were in the bathroom enough to buy 3 bottles of their body lotion and my dad got a big kick out of feeding the alpacas. Will definitely come back if I'm in the area again:)

Loved our stay!
We were wanting a place to stay heading from Christchurch to Queenstown and found this little barn house which we loved. The hosts responded quickly and were very helpful in showing what the house had to offer. We were greeted by their two pups when we arrived and loved it. Very sweet dogs! We also walked down to the alpacas and fed them and loved that as well. The views are very beautiful around the house and there’s a very peaceful feel to it. The lavender was just starting to show some color and was nice to see. We only stayed one night but the house had everything we needed for the stay. It’s a very cute house. Would definitely recommend this little barn house if you’re staying in the area!

Adorable
My mom requested a farm stay, so we chose this lavender farm. It is a ways off the beaten path but the area is so green and lush, worth it. Julie, Mike, the two cats, two dogs and three alpacas were all great. Julie made us feel right at home, Mike stuck around to talk about the property, the cats were attentive, the dogs active and after a week in New Zealand we were finally able to get close to alpacas. The beds were comfortable and the breakfast had many choices. We were only there for a day but we felt like we were with friends.

This was an ideal place to stay. central to so many places, the hosts were very friendly and made our stay feel like we were staying with friends. The dogs were well-behaved, and we were able to feed the Alpacas provided. amusement for our daughter.

A Wonderful Find
Mike and Julie were engaging, helpful, friendly and informative hosts who went out of their way to ensure we had a comfortable and relaxing stay at their wonderful lavender farm. A great place to chill out, with cosy and comfortable accommodation. The 1st floor bedroom with great views over rolling countryside and distant mountains to wake up to each morning was a delight. Two very affectionate dogs to accompany us exploring the estate, with its rows of lavender as well as grapes vines, olive and fruit trees not forgetting the three resident amiable alpacas. Highly recommended. John & Jackie (UK)
