Surrounded by flower gardens and rolling hills this beautiful little country retreat was the perfect base for my Father and I as we explored our family roots in Oamaru/Waitaki. A short drive into town, but it felt like our own little world. Accomodation was spotless, an extra room/cabin (Lamb Inn) was made available to us so plenty of space for a family & Jenny made us feel most welcome.

Fantastic hosts, friendly, helpful and lovely to chat with.
A beautiful spot for relaxing and chilling out. The Whitestone Cheese Company is in town and the colony of blue penguins are worth seeing! Highly recommend this highland homestead stay!

My husband and I stayed overnight for a weekend getaway and were really impressed! Lovely cold water and orange juice in the fridge. Everything was thought of even bread, spreads, milk, butter and even tomato sauce! Peaceful, beautifully laid out, warm and cozy and a lovely hostess! Cute animals galore had the best nights sleep in ages! Thank you for a wonderful refreshing weekend retreat!

Convenience of Oamaru but only 5 minutes away and your staying in a beautifully peaceful place. The accomodation was really comfortable. The decking was a nice place to sit and enjoy the peace and unwind. The A2O cycle track isn't too far away.

Hi Jenny. Thank you for everything yesterday and today.
Girls found an exactly the same alpaca soft toy in white at Moeraki boulders so now girls have collection of 4 alpacas.
We have a great time even though we stayed only one night.
Take care and best wishes for 2022.

A very welcome end to our two week journey from Auckland. We had two peaceful and relaxing night's at Jenny and Andy's place, in warmth and comfort. The animals were a great bonus, as well as being able to have our dog stay too.
Well done Jenny and Andy
