Nice farm cottage
Lovely rustic farm cottage with real charm. Little touches like the fresh flowers and fruit made us feel really welcome. It was nice to sit in front of the fireplace and play games.

Farmhouse in a beautiful valley.
Gorgeous flowers and birdsong surround you in a beautiful valley. Special touches like fresh plums and flowers made our stay more memorable. Older farmhouse had everything we needed for sleeping and cooking and our hostess was friendly and informative.

Nostalgic hideaway
Came across this little gem last minute and so glad we did. The cottage took us back to memories of the original kiwi bach experience, all the basics provided, fresh flowers and fruit, comfy beds and a proper homely stay - we even needed the fire which the lovely owners had started for us for our arrival. Definitely recommend for a peaceful break away.

We enjoyed our short break at Waipapa Farm cottage. Even though the cottage was basic we so enjoyed the peace and being able to wander around the farm. Our hosts Jane and Ben were very friendly and responded to our requests quickly. There was no lock on the toilet door and the bathroom sink had no plug but these were minor problems that could have been easily solved. We would thoroughly recommend this cottage for two or three people, (there were seven of us). The more people the greater the price as each additional guest incurs an extra charge which makes the cottage expensive for what it is. Apart from that, we loved it!

We enjoyed this country cottage. It was comfortable and has a lot of character. It is surrounded with old trees and beautiful mountains. We were met with flowers, lemons, and local eggs. A wonderful farm experience.

Beneath a snow capped mountain, we loved our connection.
Weather became rough the following day on arrival. Suddenly, we were confined to our escape, environment, privacy, security, & romanticism. Our host met with us once settled in, & again before departing. It is a simple farm cottage, catches the sun with a warmth factor of 8/10, allows for outside open space characteristics & very well sheltered from southern environments. The water is clean & drains well. During the night it is cozy. The neighborhood are friendly & seem to support its aspect, upstream & to the river mouth some 4km away. My partner & I are very impressed & think we got a deal breaker (considering we've stayed iat 3 other home stays during our road trip). We thank bookabach for listing the opportunity, & didn't mind the 30min journey to Kaikoura & activities the region has to offer. Ka mo te wehe tumeke Ngati Kuri.

An absolutely charming farmstay ❤️
My hubby, 2 year old daughter and I had a great stay here! Place was spacious, owners were lovely (very flexible and easy to communicate with as well) and we had so much fun exploring the property! They even had the port-a-cot set up for us! Highly recommend especially for families 🥰

We would love to stay again in the future, but would be nice to see an upgrade in the bathroom facilities and locks on the doors. 4 doors into 1 bathroom and no locks made things a bit uneasy!! Great kitchen, able to cook proper meals and great location for the mountain bike tracks 😊

Relaxing. Warm. Sentimental.
It’s like farmhouses I remember from 50 years ago. Eccentric, roomy … and a great fire. We were definitely going to get up early to explore around here. Except that we didn’t. We made up the fire, had breakfast, made a cup of tea and sat relaxedly in chair and couch in front of that fire. We were tired from vigorously travelling and this was the medicine we needed. Comfy beds. (Roll-together mattress long-replaced.) Spacious. Seriously nice hostess!

Cottage comforts.
The location was beautiful. The fire was 10/10 we loved walking in to the fire roaring and treats on the kitchen table. That was lovely Thankyou. The unique country cottage feel was charming, the native birds and the sound of the Clyde river rolling by was relaxing. The bed in the master room was lovely to get into, the blankets were warm and the sheets were soft…unfortunately the mattress has really bad roll together and we didn’t get much sleep. Great Hospitality - Thankyou and all the best.
