“Perfect”
+Perfect location close enough to the city for all your needs but just far enough away to avoid all the chaos!! And surrounded by ducks and animals so you feel closer to nature.

“A nice long weekend away, just thought it could have had more potential for the price.”
+I enjoyed the location and the privacy of the place. The bed was super comfy (but did move away from the wall a fair bit). I liked the option of having a log fire as during April it is very very cold! Glinda was helpful with checking the eco toilet for us on the weekend!
−The log fire was great when up and running, however having some instructions or support with getting the fire going - would have been helpful. We found the instructions on our last day on the door inside the cupboard. The soap was watered down and seemed a bit yuck, swapped it out for an unused soap. Hot tub outside which was a nice surprise but it was empty - would have been nice with the cold weather.

“Our kiwi stay”
+We spent 13 nights in the tiny home and enjoyed our stay. The fire made it cosy on the cooler nights.. the hottub was a lovely addition and if there was a shelter over the outdoor area we would of given 11 out of ten.. we loved the setting and the hosts were great . We would definately stay again it was perfect for what we needed. Thankyou
−There was nothing we did not like but with some out door shelter and maybe a BBQ for outdoor cooking would have just made it .

“Lovely Iasis in the bush.”
+Lovely little bush oasis, shared with the ducks, chickens and geese. Super comfy bed. Gotta love off grid approach to living.

“Tiny home disappointment”
+The setting by the lake is fantastic.
−The use of space could be so much better. No attention to the outside space at all. Could be so much better.

“One night stopover”
+We enjoyed the cosiness of the cabin once we got the fire going. It was located in a lovely farm and had we stayed longer we would have had a look around. I can see that in the summer this would be a stunning little getaway. Our host was very helpful and delivered some extra newspaper to us to start fire. The cabin was new so everything was super up to date and very clean.
−We stayed here in the winter and it was very cold and rainy. We appreciate that the hosts cannot control the weather but....the noise of the rain on the roof along with the bits of tree falling on it kept us awake all night. Once the fire had died down, we were really cold in the middle of the night. I wouldn't recommend staying in the winter. Spring/summer would be stunning though. It was a long way from any facilities so you do have to drive to get a meal. Ibwould also recommend a little shelf on one side of bed for phone/book/glass of water.

“Neat tiny home”
+Very modern accomodation, with a nice outlook. The kitchen had everything to be self sufficient. Good gas cooking facilities. Lovely shower. Very private with good off street parking. Very comfortable bed. Lovely hosts with great communication
−It had a very modern little fireplace, but no wood provided, or instructions regarding use, or notes to advise not to use. Maybe not considered cold enough. There was a little electric heater available for use.
