We liked our stay. Friendly owner operators great continental breakfast. Everything was great . Except cold showers . I asked was told people are using too much of the hot water. Tried 2 hours later still cold. I would suggest switching to a water on demand system this would solve the issue . Overall nice place.

The owner was very welcoming and his pre-stay information blurb was to-the-point without being overly informative. Rooms were well set out and the communal kitchen was well equipped and well-stocked for breakfast with plunger coffee and locally grown fruit, jams, eggs and baked goods. Unfortunately, I had to leave before I could partake!

Fantastic spot. Very quiet. Extensive gardens to enjoy. Fabulous continental breakfast with jams etc made on site as well as grown on site fruit. Plenty of parking. Large pond garden. Room was of a good size with huge comfortable bed. Large bathroom with powerful shower. Lots of birds around. TV room and arcade game station available. Staff are really helpful. One of the best places we have ever stayed on holiday.

We stayed one night while cycling The Great Taste Trail. Everything was superb from the warm welcome to check out: real coffee and A2 milk; fruit from the onsite orchard; breakfast eggs from the chickens; local bread and baked goods; home-made jams; lovely en-suite King room with Forest & Bird toiletries - the list goes on and on! Barbara and Eric are exemplary hosts, combining warmth with knowing how to allow space and privacy. We are locals who do not usually stay so close to home but we hope to shout ourselves another visit for R&R soon.

Eden's Edge Lodge was a blissful and peaceful place to stay as well as sit & relax on the deck in the afternoon. So much greenery & such magnificent herb shrubs growing around the place. The eggs, breads, honey & home made jams were also delish. We had 2 king size bedrooms which were very clean, spacious and included all the facilities required. Absolutely loved it.
