Dave and Helen are amazing hosts. They did everything they could to ensure we made the most of our stay. The cabin is kitted out as a fisherman’s delight but that doesn’t detract at all from the fact they make a very comfortable and cosy place to stay. They are well equipped with extremely comfortable beds and hot showers. There's air on for hot days and a fire if it,s chilly though we needed neither during our stay as the cabins are very well insulated. Breakfasts were amazing, brought over to the cabin on a tray, scrambled eggs from their own hens with toast, marmalade, raspberry jam or honey and fresh orange juice. The perfect start to the day.

My wife and I recently stayed and we were treated like old friends, The cottage was excellent, and the hosts were extremely welcoming and thoughtful. We were on a one month drive around both North and South Islands, and this was one of the highlights of our month. We rarely write reviews, but full credit is due here and we needed to take the time to recogise and appreciate the extra effort! Keep doing what you are doing, and being who you are!

There is little not to like, it is outside of town, so you need a car which we had, no issues with us, but for others it might be an issue

It was quiet and peaceful in BEATUIFUL surroundings and only 10 minutes to the centre of Blenheim. The cabin was cleverly themed with lots of interesting artefacts as well as modern amenities. A delicious cooked breakfast was delivered each morning. The large bed was very comfortable giving us some of the best nights sleeps we’ve had in a long while. We awoke each morning to the sounds of birdsong and sheep bleating. Our hosts were very welcoming and suggested places to visit, each day, which we wouldn’t have known about or thought of going to. The Jolly Poacher couldn’t have been more perfect.

Nothing it was just perfect.

The hosts are very available, knowledgeable about the area and friendly. The property was quiet and lovely to relax in. The cabin was very clean and very well appointed. We booked their electric bikes for a day to ride over to some cellar doors. And aside from a sore bottom from not being used to biking it was great fun! The delivered breakfasts were a special treat.

Slight disappointment that the pool was not available when we were there. A malfunction which could not be helped but it would have been appreciated after the bike ride.

Beautiful peaceful location, apartment looking out into lovely garden at the front and field of sheep at the back. Very comfortable, good space, great breakfast. Excellent shower room, comfortable beds with good linen. Very welcoming and very helpful hosts.

Everything was great

Everything…The cabin was spacious and well finished; the bedding was comfortable; super clean; quiet; great vibes from all the birds and livestock (sheep out the window, chickens and a young heifer down the drive, quails wandering by in the morning); and all a short drive to loads of wineries, hikes and restaurants!

Nothing.

Cool spot couple min of the main road, lots of effort into presentation, welcome and facilities. The beds are amazing - personal choice I know but good as it gets is our call. Got there with gas fire on, place warm and lit, tv on and welcome message. Perfect for a cold winter night.

Quiet location in a beautiful garden. Very comfortable and high quality interior with lovely details. Very nice hosts making a very pleasant stay (serving breakfast). E-bikes provided for a ride to the coast. One of best acc. in 6 weeks NZ!

Nothing to complain

Spectacular place with beautiful views and very clean fantastic amenities all you need is there for a family.

Great location very cosy and beautiful set up would definitely be back in future….

Nice quiet picturesque location. Hosts were great, facilities excellent. Great idea having hunting and fishing themed cabins that were both modern and comfortable, yet still captured the history of yesteryear. Great value for money.
