Just a quick note to say how much Amanda and I enjoyed staying with you last month. You were so welcoming and the cottage is so cosy. 6pm drinks were a great opportunity to meet yourselves and fellow travellers - I wish more places did something like this. Again, thank you. bstavert@bigpond.net.au Bruce Stavert

Having returned home in the last few days, just a short note to say how much we enjoyed our stay with you on 9-11 February, lovely peaceful location, genuine hospitality, breakfasts to die for; and evening drinks were a nice touch. Your home reminded us of rural England 40 years ago: as things used to be. We had a great holiday in New Zealand, magnificent scenery, wonderful friendly people; and on the South Island in particular no traffic!! We will hopefully be coming back in the near future. Many thanks for the welcome received, we will certainly recommend.

Don and Joy have a wonderful cozy home and really understand how to make a person feel comfortable and welcome. Our stay with them will be one of our lasting (and fondest) memories of New Zealand.

A charming old world feel that removes you from the pressures of life.The hosts, Joy and Don make you feel very much at home.The garden together with the magnificent backdrop of mountains and lake spirits you away into another world.The breakfast is a treat with homemade bread, muffins and jams.A fabulous place to stay and you leave feeling you have become part of Joy and Don's family. Thank you both for making my stay so memorable 		(none)
