Great place to stay for Cambridge and Hobbiton
Lovely rural stay just out of Cambridge for visiting friends and doing the Hobbiton tour. Elevated view over a green valley to the hills. Comfortable bed and everything we needed. Highly recommended.

A stay in "The Shire"
For Lord of the Rings and Hobbit fans, this accommodation was our own slice of "The Shire". The room with queen bed was very comfortable, with absolutely stunning views from the adjoining deck. The kitchen was clean and neat and the bathroom modern and simple. The location was great, being only a couple of minutes from the centre of Cambridge. I would definitely recommend Kate's place!

Short stay in Cambridge
Comfortable convenient. Disappointed that dollar value was $us on a NZ website and the stay lacked a personal welcome. Lack of hairdryer surprising.

This nice little property is located separate from, but on the same lot as the (presumed) owner's property. Plenty of driveway space, easy access, and a code-controlled gate access entering the property. The bed was comfortable with a nice view out of the back, a good-sized TV (if desired) and convenient wifi add to the comforts. A fresh loaf of bread was a nice treat, as was the coffee options in place.

Weekend in Cambridge
A cozy cottage close to Cambridge with full kitchen and modern bathroom. The bed was very comfortable and the views across fields to the hills was amazing. The host left breakfast, milk and a lovely loaf. Booking and entry to the cottage was smooth. Perfect for a weekend away.

Impeccable stay
The view was much more than advertised,it was incredible. Everything about our stay was just fantastic. The bed was comfortable, the couch was the comfiest spot to sip coffee and stare out at the view, we appreciated the delicious bread and breakfast bits. The property was well equipped with everything we needed, was very clean, and if we ever make our way back to NZ we will stay here again. Thank you so much for everything.

A delightful weekend away
Kate was extremely accommodating and we felt very comfortable when she left us to our own plans, after introductory pleasantries. The place itself was exceptionally clean and an absolute delight to stay in, not too small to feel claustrophobic, and yet also not too big to feel too spaced out or tedious to move around. Just right, in our personal opinion :) The bed was extremely comfortable, complimentary bread was divine for our toasty breakfasts, TV was equipped with both Sky and Chromecast so our entertainment needs were easily met, and the outdoor deck and view was even better than pictured. All in all we loved this bach and would absolutely recommend to small groups looking for a comfortable, friendly, quiet and central stay in Cambridge :D 10/10, would happily go back to pet the friendly golden retriever again!

Incredible Country Beauty
The perfect location, especially for a Lord of the Rings nerd. Every morning I awoke and peered out onto the deck to be greeted by the Shire, with mist rolling over the fields and cows and sheep grazing below. Very close to Hobbiton Movie Set, and not far from Rotorua and Waitomo. All of the essentials are covered, even a fresh loaf of delicious bread. Great cats and dogs as well-- it was fantastic being greeted by them each time we returned. Stunning property and tranquil views-- I surely miss sipping wine out on the deck during sunset. Thanks for a great stay!
