Summary: This is one of the best tiny home accommodation experiences. The tiny home itself is very modern and all the minor details and extras were much appreciated! Located on a farm that makes you feel like you really are in New Zealand! The outdoor fire brazier was a nice touch, bbq available to use as well Clean quality linens and a comfy bed meant a good night's sleep. Good hot water system for the shower and kitchen too This is the perfect place to feel like you're in a rural location, but still close enough to all the amenities and only 20mins from Tauranga city centre Big thank you to the amazing hosts - we asked to look around the farm and the hosts treated us like family! we got to meet the farm animals and see a private bush walk reserve located on this property We recommend others to get in touch with the hosts, who are very nice people. They improved our stay here from simply a place to sleep to a genuine New Zealand rural experience. Their bush walk and nature reserve was a big highlight.
