We loved our 4 days in Hurford. The place was small but comfortable and set in the most amazing beautiful garden! It was a good base to explore the area, great hiking in the Kataki range, lovely beach at Oakura. Only 20 mins from the Bowl of Brooklands where went to a concert. Highly recommend

A good place

Unfortunately the cute chickens had left a deposit which was cleaned up just before we arrived. The hosts could explain a bit better about where the guests can walk, as they have a magnificent garden

Lovely and quiet

Great little place, good location within easy reach of everything. Only downside would be the fact the bed squeeks every time you move Listing says there is a washer and dryer but there is not though this is apparently not theough lack of them trying to stop it from being on the list

Lovely quiet out of the way country cottage but close enough to New Plymouth for all the attractions. It was a well provided studio cottage for staying, even with no TV in it the stay was nice and relaxed and there was a lovely big gardens to walk around and small bush track. It does get hot with closed windows and watch out for a large amounts of moths wanting to get in at night, apart from these minor issues it is well worth the stay.

Amazing stay on a farm property, and accommodating of us despite a last minute booking. Make sure to verbally confirm check our times, as ours was incorrect and we were awoken with a rude confrontation about it. Otherwise, a lovely stay

Nice quiet place in the country is exactly what we needed after an all day heavy metal gig in town. A great place to stay if you enjoy reading in the sunshine, tho I wasn’t around long enough to enjoy that aspect.
