“Warm, cosy and great location”
Great location, responsive hosts, warm and clean. Hosts had the fire going before we arrived so we came into a warm lounge. Great little kitchenette with everything you need for a long weekend stay. When a power cut interrupted the hot water the hosts were very quick to get it fixed

“The Barn”
The Barn was an amazing place in Mosgiel to stay, such a neat use of space, modern, clean and cosy in a peaceful rural setting. The hosts were so kind that they had lit the fire for us so after our late arriving flight The Barn was nice and warm for us on a very cold winters evening. Great location close to all amenities, highly recommend.

“Ok”
The place itself was lovely. There were extras in Bathroom Shampoo and Conditioner etc and in kitchen tea, sugar etc. Fire in lounge had wood if it got cold. A note from owner would have been nice to let us know to call if we had any issues etc

“A Tranquil Retreat with Breathtaking Views”
Subject: A Tranquil Retreat with Breathtaking Views The standout feature of this accommodation is undeniably the mesmerizing views of the mountains and expansive farming land. Picture-perfect scenes with sheep peacefully grazing in the nearby paddocks create a tranquil and idyllic setting. It's a slice of paradise for those who appreciate nature's beauty. The serenity of the location is matched by the absolute quietude that surrounds the Barn. If you're in search of a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, you'll find solace here. The presence of a ready-to-light fire and an ample supply of dry wood only enhances the cozy and intimate atmosphere, making it a perfect retreat for any season. The beds were a highlight of the stay, offering supreme comfort that made it difficult to leave them in the morning. Adorned with beautiful white linen, the beds exuded an inviting and luxurious charm. A good night's sleep is practically guaranteed in this haven of comfort. One of the noteworthy aspects of the apartment was its impeccable cleanliness. The attention to detail in maintaining a spotless environment did not go unnoticed, and it greatly contributed to the overall enjoyment of the stay. In conclusion, my stay at this apartment exceeded all expectations. Whether you're a nature enthusiast, seeking a peaceful retreat, or simply looking for a unique experience, this accommodation offers it all. I highly recommend booking a stay here through Booking.com for an unforgettable escape into the beauty of New Zealand's landscapes.
