Jan 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing rural retreat This is one of the best tiny home accommodation experiences. The tiny home itself is very modern and all the minor details and extras were much appreciated! Located on a farm that makes you feel like you really are in New Zealand! The outdoor fire brazier was a nice touch, bbq available to use as well Clean quality linens and a comfy bed meant a good night's sleep. Good hot water system for the shower and kitchen too This is the perfect place to feel like you're in a rural location, but still close enough to all the amenities and only 20mins from Tauranga city centre Big thank you to the amazing hosts - we asked to look around the farm and the hosts treated us like family! we got to meet the farm animals and see a private bush walk reserve located on this property We recommend others to get in touch with the hosts, who are very nice people. They improved our stay here from simply a place to sleep to a genuine New Zealand rural experience. Their bush walk and nature reserve was a big highlight. ##### Carl R.
