Peaceful, quiet and very comfortable.

Gorgeous unit with everything required. The bed was super comfortable and wow the shower was amazing. In the kitchen was everything needed to prepare meals and even some herbs and spices. The stars were spectacular with the darkness around. So much better than watching tele. Waking to the bird song starts the day perfectlyWould thoroughly recommend if you want a stay away from the busy world.

Absolutely breathtaking.

A Magical Night at this getaway propertyOur overnight stay at the property was nothing short of magical. Nestled amidst a serene woodland, the property offered a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the warmth that greeted us, hinting at the cozy sanctuary within.Inside, the place was immaculately clean and thoughtfully decorated with vintage furnishings and soft, earthy tones. The crackling fireplace in the living room created a delightful ambiance, perfect for sipping a cold beverage and unwinding. The kitchen was fully equipped, allowing us to whip up a hearty dinner, which we enjoyed at the charming wooden dining table while gazing out at the moonlit orchard through large picture windows.The bedroom was a dream—plush bedding, soft lighting, and a view of the stars through a skylight. It was so peaceful that we slept like babies, lulled by the gentle sound of crickets and rustling leaves. In the morning, we woke to birdsong and brewed coffee on the patio, soaking in the crisp, fresh air.The owners clearly put thought into every detail, further aiding us to escape from the bustle of daily life—a perfect blend of tranquility, charm, and comfort.We can’t wait yogetaway in natuhome

Comfortable cottage in stunning position

Great sunny position high on a hill overlooking a bountiful orchard and the whole Waikato below. Very welcoming hosts, comfortable beds. I suppose having no TV or microwave added to the serenity.
