The view from the room across the farm land was lovely and it was enjoyable to see the alpacas, sheep and one cow near by. ##### Ann Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### alper Oct 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wake up with alpacas Nice and cozy.

The apartment was located on a farm. We woke up to alpaca outside our room and the view was lovely. The room was comfortable and the host was gracious. Our only issue was the lack of reliable wifi. It was hit and miss. ##### Gregory Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kris Feb 27, 2024 #### Peaceful Shire location Pleasant experience in a very peaceful environment. Close to the town of Cambridge and Hobbiton, which was the goal. ##### Kris Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Dec 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I loved waking up to see the alpacas outside the window. The place itself was clean and spatious and seems like a great place to get away for a vacation. My only regret is that I couldn't stay longer! ##### John Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jiyao Feb 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### lovely BnB with great view and cute alpacas. We stayed in Honeymoon Studio Suite with a front porch. The suite is spacious and decorated beautifully. We enjoyed mountain view and watching moon at night. It was so fun to have breakfast with the alpacas and other animals around the house. The host was very kind and very friendly. We had a very pleasant stay. ##### Jiyao Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wesley Nov 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The facility is simple but pleasant. We enjoyed our stay at the Homestead. The alpacas come right up to you and like to be fed avocado leaves. The hosts are very pleasant and helpful. Our only semi-issue are the mattresses are very firm. Also photos are accurate, great view from room, light breakfast items in room (granola, cereal, milk, toast). ##### Wesley Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Chadwick Feb 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities What I liked about the property was its uniqueness. It was hard to see the sign, you did have to open and close a gate to get in and out, and there were animals in the yard, but that was part of its charm. The room was clean and comfortable. The continental breakfast was tasty and got me through the morning and the cookies were delicious. ##### Chadwick Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Philipp Nov 20, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We enjoyed our stay at the Homestead. The alpacas were really cute and the mountain view was great! The Breakfast was prepacked in the fridge. 4 slices of bread, 2 fruit yoghurts and different types of spreads. milk and water have also been prepared. This worked out great for us. Getting to the BnB and leaving is difficult since it is located directly at the highway. So getting out on busy hours can be tough. Watch out the alpacas seem to have figured out how to take the stairs ;) ##### Philipp Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samuel Feb 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cute place, fun to see the alpacas Very cute place! It was so fun to have breakfast with the alpacas and other animals just outside the window. The host was very kind and accommodating. He had a variety of yogurt, bread and jam and other simple breakfast foods. We stayed the main house. The only downside was the shared bathroom. Depending on how many guests are at the house there can be lengthy waits for the bathroom. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/EB2D6D72A70C7750ED5ECE49B526CB5D6A3604FE1707805851364.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Samuel Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hilton Queenstown Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Queenstown-Hotels-Hilton-Queenstown-Resort-Spa.h4268206.Hotel-Information) > > [Te Anau Central Backpackers](https://www.expedia.ca/Te-Anau-Hotels-Te-Anau-Central-Backpackers.h84134490.Hotel-Information) > > [Two Rivers Boutique Lodge Ohakune](https://www.expedia.ca/Ohakune-Hotels-Two-Rivers-Ohakune.h109320695.Hotel-Information) > > [Ohakune TOP 10 Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Ohakune-Hotels-Ohakune-TOP-10-Holiday-Park.h33230446.Hotel-Information) > > [Acacia Lodge Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Mangonui-Hotels-Acacia-Lodge-Motel.h2600471.Hotel-Information) > > [JetPark Hotel Hamilton Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Jet-Park-Hotel-Hamilton-Airport.h4281130.Hotel-Information) > > [Monty's self-contained unit](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Montys-Self-Contained-Unit.h37984382.Hotel-Information) > > [Maple Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Wanaka-Hotels-Maple-Lodge.h1862628.Hotel-Information) > > [Turangi Leisure Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Turangi-Hotels-Turangi-Leisure-Lodge.h61338998.Hotel-Information) > > [Distinction Luxmore Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Te-Anau-Hotels-Distinction-Luxmore-Hotel.h519248.Hotel-Information) > > [Duvauchelle Seaside Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Duvauchelle-Hotels-Duvauchelle-Seaside-Motel.h20930343.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakeview Colonial Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Queenstown-Hotels-Colonial-Village-Motel.h11453583.Hotel-Information) > > [Falcons Nest](https://www.expedia.ca/Cromwell-Hotels-Falcons-Nest.h31053004.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Lodge Okataina](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Okataina-Hotels-Lakes-Lodge-Okataina.h88669411.Hotel-Information) > > [Carrick Lodge Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Cromwell-Hotels-Carrick-Lodge-Motel.h9626119.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waterlily Gardens](https://www.expedia.ca/Waihi-Hotels-The-Waterlily-Gardens.h21518126.Hotel-Information) > > [Nomads Rest](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-Tekapo-Hotels-Nomads-Rest.h27954748.Hotel-Information) > > [The Reservation B&B](https://www.expedia.ca/Gore-Hotels-The-Reservation.h9679423.Hotel-Information) > > [Sundowner Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Greymouth-Hotels-Sundowner-Motel.h19166307.Hotel-Information) > > [Parklands Motorlodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Turangi-Hotels-Parklands-Motorlodge.h918774.Hotel-Information) > > [The Matarangi B & B](https://www.expedia.ca/Matarangi-Hotels-The-Matarangi-B-B.h97053938.Hotel-Information) > > [Awaroa Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Awaroa-Bay-Hotels-Awaroa-Lodge.h5417771.Hotel-Information) > > [Cabot Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Manapouri-Hotels-Cabot-Lodge.h27335613.Hotel-Information) > > [Somersal Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Somersal-Bed-Breakfast.h4528347.Hotel-Information) > > [Horse and Jockey Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Horse-And-Jockey-Inn.h29357900.Hotel-Information) > > [Ribbonwood Country House](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheviot-Hotels-Ribbonwood-Country-House.h15876059.Hotel-Information) > > [Waitomo Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Te-Kuiti-Hotels-Waitomo-Lodge.h72941486.Hotel-Information) > > [Waitomo Village Chalets Home of Kiwipaka](https://www.expedia.ca/Waitomo-Caves-Hotels-Kiwi-Paka-Waitomo.h19526472.Hotel-Information) > > [Ruapehu Country Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Ohakune-Hotels-Ruapehu-Country-Lodge.h9625899.Hotel-Information)
