Summary: Quiet and clean with plenty of room

meera h. Nov 1, 2024 10:55:05 AM

Summary: We both loved the house. Especially because it has the old, historic characteristics with the modern bathroom. We were very cosy and warm in the kitchen with the wood fireplace. The property around is well groomed. Srunning scenic views.

Summary: Brilliant property and lovely location Needs to be really clear in the advertising that every extra person over 2 people is an extra $70 pp per night as this can change the cost significantly - it almost doubles the price for a weekend if you increase from 2-4 people.

Kelsey A. Sep 23, 2024 08:27:07 AM

Summary: Awesome place, such a quirky little retreat. Loved the spiral staircase with all the wood and brick contrast. Spending evenings by the fire was a real treat. Was a pleasure to be able to bring our dog with us too!

Andrew P. Sep 9, 2024 06:07:06 AM

Summary: The building is quite unique. Reminds me of 1980's stye architectural design. I would love to know the history of the building and maybe some photos of it being built? Would stay again without a doubt.

Summary: Lovely location. Great place to base for exploring the area. Peaceful and tranquil. Great that the place is pet friendly. Our dog loved the location, the sells, the river and the wildlife.

Summary: We loved our stay at the secluded retreat, our hosts were very good at communicating throughout the booking and during our stay. Marienui is an ideal place to explore the Manawatū cycle way. So many interesting places to explore along the way. The description of the place was accurate, bed very comfortable. A hands on country experience, wood chopping, fire lighting great for us city folks.

Summary: Lovely location. Was a quick stop over enroute to our destination. Really enjoyed our short stay. Dogs loved the space to roam. House is very reminiscent of Rodger Walker style. Love its character. Thanks David and Sue
