    The lodge is quite basic but you can't fault it for cleanliness, the beds were comfortable, the towels super soft, and staff friendly. Location is good. The cooking facilities were adequate to allow us to cook our dinner.

    So cute and comfortable!!! Delicious home made bread and fresh eggs for breakfast. It was so relaxing being out on a farm next to goats. And we had a delicious Italian dinner in Matamata. Super close to Hobbiton!! Thanks for a great night!

    Both Jen and Dewi are extra special hosts with that gift of hospitality that makes you feel welcome. Invited to join with other guests it was like being with family for we felt at home! The house will captivate the craftsman builder enrich ideas and possibilities and encourage pioneers and innovators.

    Jen and Dewi went out of their way to make us feel at home and special. I loved cooking a spontaneous dinner party out of the garden with them. They were full of good advice about what to see and do. We enoyed Over the Moon cheese shop, which they recommended. The whole house is artfully furnished and a joy to look at.
