Peaceful Family Retreat
This is a very spacious, modern house while also being cosy and comfortable. The setting is private and feels remote despite being so close to Upper Hutt. Bush surrounds three sides of the property and the outlook is over rugged farmland and river terraces so it's very peaceful. It is obviously set up as a great place to entertain but we also found it perfect for a small family retreat. It had everything we needed with a good helping of luxury!

Not quite what we expected from a 'high end' property
The physical situation of this house is lovely, looking out to native bush and trees with the sound of the river in the distance. The actual house itself is well appointed but we were really disappointed in the state of the kitchen which was not clean and which had an oven with a non-sealing door (which really compromised the Christmas dinner we had advised the owner we were going to be cooking!). For what amounted to close to $1200 a night we didn't expect to have to clean before we cooked.

Amazing home
Staying here was like staying in a resort. The property was stunning, toasty warm in cooler weather but also amazing outdoor area. The views are phenomenal and we came away totally chilled out. Multiple spaces and screens were great for the teens, loved the fireplaces in and out, and the spa was delightful during the day and cooler nights. Loved our stay here.

Mid year getaway
Pictures do not do justice. This home is absolutely jaw dropping. By far our best home we have stayed at through this site. Mehrdad's great communication led to an easy transition both arriving and leaving. My friends and I cannot thank you enough for letting us stay in your home and we wish all the best. - Sam
