We really enjoyed our stay and loved the setting of the property. It was very quiet and lovely view sitting relaxing on the deck. The children loved collecting fresh eggs and feeding the chickens. The house had everything we needed and felt like we were very rural but yet less than 10mins to the supermarket and a quick trip into town. The only downside for us was not getting on with Lucy the cat! Thanks for having us 😀

Beautiful property and location! Children loved the chickens especially ☺️ only a few minor things would have added to the stay, a few basics like oil, spreads,sauces and cling wrap/tinfoil etc would have saved us having to buy absolutely everything from scratch. Also top sheets on the beds would have been good as it was so hot and only heavy duvets 🥵 However, overall still enjoyed the stay! ☺️

Beautiful property and house. Lots of natural light/windows and great deck overlooking the garden and neighbouring paddocks. Lots of veg growing that we could help ourselves too and fresh eggs daily from the chickens. Dan and Bena have put in a lot of work turning it into a eco/sustainable property. Private rural location but still very close to New Plymouth city and amenities. Multiple beaches near by too. Great views of Mt. Taranaki in the area ( not from the property). We all loved our stay and wish we could call it home.

This is a fantastic holiday home, away from it all but at the same time close to the city, near great beaches and parks. Enough space for a family of 6. The kids enjoyed the cat and chickens. Very friendly and helpful owners.

We really enjoyed are 8 days at this beautiful property. Such a lot of hard work and thought has been put in to it and the pay off is obvious. It is peaceful and relaxing, and a lovely place to return to after a good day out. A big thanks to Daniel and Ben a.

Really enjoyed the quiet country setting of this home after a busy day at the beach or in town. Lucy the cat greeted us warmly on each return and the free range eggs were delicious. The newly decorated home and kitchen was clean, cozy and comfortable. With a few minor finishing touches - kitchen drawer handles : ) this lovely home makes for a great holiday destination.

This property lives up to its name, an eco friendly family home. My family stayed for five nights through January. We enjoyed looking after the chickens and checking for fresh eggs each day, the kids loved the trampoline as an added surprise. A very peaceful part of New Plymouth, wonderful house to relax in after day out. Close to everything you need, and to New Plymouth itself. The brochure provided by the hosts was very helpful, this was made available prior to our arrival also. Andrew was very prompt in responding to our communication regarding the house. We would definitely stay at the property again, and will recommend to family and friends.

We have enjoyed staying at this secluded house. The place was clean and tidy. As described the house was unfinished but it doesn't take away it's charms, in fact we hardly noticed it, with the exception of the lack of curtains for one of the windows in the master bedroom which made for very bright mornings. The house was very relaxing and have plenty of space inside with lots of games, toys and DVDs to entertain everyone. The kitchen was basic but functional. We loved the surrounding, with the veranda overlooking the private bush backyard which was done very nicely and the kids loved running around there. We have also enjoyed the company of Lucy the cat! The house was just a short drive to New Plymouth town centre and an easy drive to bushwalks at Mt Taranaki.
