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!

We had a relaxing and pleasant stay here. The rooms were comfortable and of decent size to place our luggage. I like the spacious and cosy sitting area with kitchenette. Breakfast was good and the breakfast area was nice. We took a little walk around the area and it is so peaceful. We would be happy to stay here a few days if visiting the area longer in future.

Very cute rooms with everything we needed. Comfortable, quiet, and warm place to sleep. There were sustained 50mph winds outside when we were there, but inside you could not tell. No drafts or creaking windows. Blackout curtains worked well (essential for summer). Hearty breakfast was a nice bonus. Staff gave helpful guidance on where to watch out for bad weather while driving. Location is perfect place to stay near the black sand beaches. We were glad we did not stay any further towards Vik because a few minutes past this place is a big hill that we would not have wanted to drive over in extreme weather.
