Cozy with beautiful country views of the hills
Apart from water issue on arrival it was remedied within acceptable time. Though there is free Wi-Fi, the connection is not the best so make sure you have mobile data.Since the accommodation has a washing machine, a clothes airer or clothesline would be ideal, so the guest do not have to use the owners facility.

Great location near Cambridge and Matamata (Hobbiton) and the name “stunning country views” is perfect. The unit is very compact and a small couch in the bedroom is the only place to sit down indoors. However the country view in the back yard with hills cows horses sheep and pigs makes up for it.
