Lovely as an air B&B, modern, spacious and comfortable, about an 8 min drive to Levin very easy.
Pros:

The room was great, spacious and accessibility was great

Cons:

Stayed in room 23 as I needed a walk in shower, Gates were not closed/locked on our last evening they were, felt uneasy as seemed we were the only guests, nobody onsite to be found, cafe/restaurant closed not what the paperwork states in the room. We stayed 4 nights and didn’t get any service eg bins emptied nor were the extra rubbish bags/outdoor bins it’s like an Air B&B the door handle has a lock code to enter.

Spacious rooms with top-quality fittings – great for pet owners too!
Pros:

The room and bathroom were both generously sized, and everything felt brand new and well-equipped. The attention to quality really stood out – they’ve chosen reputable brands throughout, including Daikin air conditioning. The bed was wonderfully comfortable with just the right amount of firmness to provide good lumbar support. We travelled with our dogs, and the property made it very easy for them to move around outside the room. Highly recommend for pet-friendly stays!

Pros:

What an amazing place to stay. We had our sports team stay here during a tournament and it worked perfectly. Great grounds and facilities. Rooms are spacious and clean and have everything you need. Close to town but tucked back from the street that you feel like you're on holiday.

Cons:

Would have been nice to have dinner there but understand its a work in progress.

Nice, but bad location with no food, or food delivery available.
Pros:

Very new, very clean

Cons:

Beware this location is in the middle of nowhere. There is no restaurant, and ubereats doesn't deliver here. If you don't have a car finding food to eat here will be tricky. There is no one at reception ever so you have to go hunting for staff on the grounds to find your room key or if you need any help at all!!! We had a wedding there at the staff clears the table really fast like 2 hours before the reception was due to finish! Even if your wine glass is half full they'll take it and clear up while you're on the dance floor really really, 2 hours before reception was meant to finish because they're so short staffed.
