Clean and decent size room. Staff was friendly with smiles. Bed was comfortable and the blanket was soft and warm. Nice common area with fridge, microwave, tea kettle and toilet. I had private bathroom. I’m not sure each room has at least the shower. Breakfast is included and it was good. Staff is working very hard.

Breakfast menu was very good. Good selection and fresh food. Parking was right next to our room. Very affordable in a land where everything seems expensive.Rooms on the small side, but clean and comfortable, which is what we wanted and paid for. Highly recommended.

Loved staying here. The property was relatively remote so I could see the northern lights from here. Beautiful property, clean and well-cared for space, and breakfast was fresh and tasty.

Pictures here need updating. Farm Stays since 1984; they've got it right. Rooms in the new building are small but efficient.......they reminded me of stables for size and shape: beds and showers great, no complaints. Lovely small bar and great food for evening meal. Warm and friendly staff.
A view up-mauka.

Our family of 5 had a large and comfortable upstairs room at the guest house. It had a nice view of the countryside off of a small balcony. It slept 5 comfortably. The staff were pleasant and the breakfast was included and had a small variety of options that was a good size for the number of guests. The goats next door on the farm were very cute. Thank you for a lovely stay!
