The property was very convenient to the Central Otago Rail Trail and close to the town pub/restaurant as well. The host was extremely kind and there was a nice location to park our bikes. The outdoor spaces were really lovely. If we had good weather, this place would be so charming. The bathroom/shower area was really nice, and even though it was shared, I never felt inconvenienced. There was also an adorable little shed area that was set up as a reading nook/game room.

The only issue we had is that we were there in very rainy weather, and the actual room was very small and quite hot. During great weather, we would've spent most of our time outside, because the garden areas were all exceptional. During hard rain, we spent most of our time in our room, which was very small and very hot during the day (fine at night but could really hear the rain pounding on the tin roof). None of this was the hosts' fault, since weather is just weather.

Simple and comfortable cabins. Nicely decorated to give it a luxurious feel. Shared bathrooms were gorgeous - nothing like a hostel. Excellent breakfast the next morning also.

Had to pay by cash or bank transfer - happy to do this but didn’t have notice. Also, some windows do not have blinds. When it is light till after 10pm, that can disrupt sleep somewhat.

The host was really nice, which made the breakfasts enjoyable. The access to the Rail Trail couldn't be better and the local hotel/restaurant had good food.

My adult daughter and I had a great stay in Waipiata. A big thank you to Deborah for creating a property with such a great feel and for the very comfortable stay. We had a few mishaps on the rail trail and we’re running very late. Deborah went to the trouble of ringing us to check we were ok and waited up until we arrived.

All good.

Lovely, relaxing accommodation, which had everything we needed. Excellent shower and the breakfast provided was incredible.. The only negative was the price. I feel that the amount we paid was too much for b and b accommodation in an outside cabin which contained just beds.

A quirky alternative to other places we stayed at.

Slight disadvantage having to go to another building for toilet/shower but managed fine.

Lovely breakfast and gracious host.

I had not realised the bathroom and toilet, while shared, were in a separate building and we had to walk outside to get to them.

It was very quiet with a very nice garden and surroundings. Breakfast was nice.. The owner is very delightful to be with. Rooms were very comfortable and had nice coffee/tea facilities. Shower was great.

You can only pay with cash.

Very comfy bed. Nice continental breakfast and short walk to the local pub which has fantastic food.

Nothing

Thank you for everything. Was the perfect location for our trip and the breakfast was simple and delicious. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, as short as it was, and would definitely come back.
