“We enjoyed our comfortable country Fantail stay and pleasant surroundings.”
Breakfast was satisfactory with a good cup of coffee but I liked waking up in the morning with the country feel and open spaces.

“Exceptional accommodation in rural location but close enough for Hamilton events.”
Met by the lovely host. The location and situation of this accommodation is superb. Layout inside is immaculate and so well cared for. I could have stayed for weeks! If you don't need/want to be in the city (Hamilton) this place is absolutely perfect. We saw a spectacular sunrise which set us up beautifully for the day. Lovely breakfast supplies available and the aircon was very welcome as it was a hot day when we arrived. Will definitely stay here again when in Hamilton for events.
