"...The accommodation was exceptional - everything so beautifully designed & appointed, lovingly tended. The whole time we were there we were wishing we could share it with our loved ones; having a beer overlooking the valley, or going into town for a croissant at Paddock & a stroll through Te Koutu Park. As compact as the Loft was, it was such a healing space from its relaxing bath to its reviving balcony..." ​

"Wow, Wow, Wow" "As is obvious from my title, I loved this place! I am quite a fussy traveller so am rarely as satisfied as I was with our two nights at Huntington Stables. We stayed in The Loft which is so much nicer than in the photos. Besides the lovely decor and fabulous views, every little detail one could think of, and some I never expected has been accounted for.

"Birthday weekend with family: this was a planned weekend with my Sister, Brother and his wife. We cannot recommend our stay highly enough. Fabulous accommodation. Great location. Our wonderful host (Robyn) couldn't do enough for us. Her suggestions, advice, bookings, food and welcoming friendliness were first class. no complaints in any way... Oh, maybe one...we should have stayed longer! But we will be back. And you should go too. Definitely 10/10"

"Simply perfect: My husband and I just needed a couple of relaxing nights away after a difficult few months of health issues, and I'm delighted we found this place. We stayed in the smallest accommodation option, The Stall, which is a charming little gem but with plenty of space for your luggage and clothing, a kitchenette area, a beautiful tiled bathroom with a spacious shower, and a private balcony overlooking the valley.

We are just sitting at Auckland airport, about to head home to Newcastle Australia after a two week sojourn around New Zealand's North Island. We have had some incredible times - from a walk through the Redwoods in Rotorua, to the hush of Waitomo Glow-worm caves, from the Paihia-Russell Ferry, to Auckland's culinary delights (We fell in love with Mezze Bar in Durham Street).
