Happy stay in quiet setting
The property was very clean. The bach was very well set up.
We did leave the used towels out on Saturday morning on the chair on the decking for fresh towels.They were unfortunately not replaced.
Dispite this we had a lovely stay.

Comfy wee spot
We enjoyed our two nights at the farm shed. Great hosts. Lots to explore in the area and return to soak in the hot tub under the stars with a gorgeous view. Perfect spot for a getaway.

Amazing wee getaway
This stay was amazing, a very short drive to everything and only 10 minutes out of Richmond. The house was fully kitted with everything we needed and the hosts were outstanding. We could feed the animals, relax under the stars in the spa and even had a drink with the hosts who were so welcoming. Completely private stay. Would 100% stay again. Thanks Michelle and Nigel.

Fantastic from start to finish
Michelle and Tony are awesome hosts of a lovely spacious studio ‘shed’. You are rural, so 20-30 minutes drive to local sights, but you have fantastic views, you’re surrounded by their sheep and cows and your hosts have thought of everything. They’ll assist you with day trips, restaurant and winery suggestions and anything else you’ll need. Be sure to go to the local Moutere Hills Winery, friends of Michelle and Tony, for superb Chenin Blanc and lovely reds too. From the ‘shed’, we ventured to Abel Tasman, by road up to Tataka and by boat north of Kaikerikeri, to Nelson as well as local stops in Mapua, Motueka and Kina Beach. Lovely food and view at Jellyfish in Mapua Harbour. We cannot recommend this spot or the hosts more highly.
