Everything was great!

Bernie and Marie were absolutely delightful hosts and we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. The property is conveniently located near to the various activities in the area, which made travelling to and from a breeze! Breakfast was also amazing, and with sheep and alpaca at the property as well, I can’t recommend this stay more!

Helpful owners making a fantastic breakfast with local products

Breakfast was great - hand built to order with a lot of fresh and homemade ingredients. Sauna really helped after a day on the mountain. Grounds are beautiful and relaxing. Loved the sheep and alpacas.
Everything was great. Cat allergy could have been an issue but I was dosed up and they stay on one side of the house (and they're great looking cats).

Bernie and Marie were great hosts and fired up the spa to assist in our recovery after the Tongariro Alpine Crossing. They also provided useful restaurant and walking trail tips. Highly recommend.

Bernie and Marie were tremendous hosts, nothing was too much trouble. Great breakfast. Stayed here in 2019 with different hosts. Didn't think it could have been any better than our last visit but I think it is 5.5 out of 5

Breakfast was amazing! A great spread in the living room with other guests.
Marie and Bernie went out of their way to accomodate us, helping us out when we couldn’t get dinner in the town over Easter weekend.

The breakfast is super nice! Various choices and all of them tastes so good. The hosts are very friendly and kind, makes us feel like a home. We arrived late and they are so caring, helped us with food and heater etc. The animals are so adorable, and the garden is pretty - suitable for a morning walk. Really appreciate Bernie & Marie's hosting! We had a nice stay and hope we can go back and meet you guys soon. :)
Can't come up with anything bad here! Everything is so wonderful!

the grounds are lovely and the breakfast was really nice, Marie and her husband were really warm and pleasant, suggested a few places to visit on our stay and a couple of places to eat dinner at. Would recommend this place to my friends.
the bed king bed would have been better if it wasn't two singles pushed together.

Great hosts

Marie and Bernie are very nice people who have great local knowledge plenty of guidance around skiing hiking and mtb ebiking or cycling, trip planning is a breeze with their advice would highly recommend R.C.L. Hospitality was second to nothing they offered to make our stay better in so many ways. Well situated ideal for people traveling in a car. While we recovered from our hike in the hot tub Bernie offered to get us a beer from our fridge and our jackets and boots were sorted into the drying room. Perfect place for escape with the Wife/g.f or lads/girls. I forgot to mention we were vegan but they had no problem changing up the breakfast was yummy. Perfect access to activities don't hesitate to book. See you guys again thanks, it felt like we made some new friends so much in common.
Didn't have enough time to experience the golf course just a walk out the back gate...now that's cool!

Fabulous breakfast with selection of fruit juices, cereal, fresh fruit and yoghurt. The homemade, fresh bread toasted with free range eggs and bacon was the perfect start for our drive to Wellington. Great hosts who lit the open fire for our return from dinner in Ohakune.

Awesome stay on a beautiful property. Heather and Peter went above and beyond to look after us and ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. Lovely home cooked breakfasts each morning and homemade mulled wine. We couldn’t have asked for more. Ricky Martin the dog was an adorable added bonus.
