Great spot just on the outskirts of Matamata, quiet and cute and comfortable. You could walk into town on a nice day, but we drove in since it was spring and rainy or overcast. Lovely spot, would stay again!

Parking right outside the units.Came in outside check in time but was able to get the clerk on phone. The sink design is awkward as the bath room sink is outside in the living room opposite to kitchen sink! This is a small town and the eateries are 5 min drive. Overall good place to stay.
