Family Holiday

Relaxing family stay with primary age kids and grandparents. Great spot with lovely spaces to unwind after day trips. The place is very well equipped with quality appliances, and was spotless. Loved the views from the great big dining table and the bath, as well as feeding the alpacas.

Haven near Hamilton

We stayed here for two nights to be central to a couple day trips and wish we could stay longer. The property was well taken care of and comfortable. Very spacious. Slept really well. The hosts were considerate, with fresh cut flowers and sweets for the kids. There's some Alpaca, sheep, chickens, and cows on site which is exciting for the kids. Will definitely try to stay here next time I'm near Hamilton.
