Incredible farmstay. We came to stay a couple of days while on vacation as a romantic getaway. Located very close to main part of Oamaru - about like a 10-15minute easy drive. The hut is cozy, comfortable, and beautifully maintained inside and outside. The alpacas are awesome and loved feeding them. Also enjoyed the incredible night sky. Jenny is a lovely host and offered lots of helpful suggestions for exploring the area. Overall, we had a great time and highly recommmed!

Perfect, sweetest country place to stay with Family and friends. It isn't far away from the town which easy to travel. The host, Jennie prepared everything for this hut. You just need to bring some clothes and light food. The toilet and furry pets were awesome. Alpacas boys were in the good mood and didn’t spit and kick.

Awesome place to stay. Our host Jennie was very welcoming. Feeding the alpacas and sheep was definitely a highlight, as was the outdoor bathtub. When leaving we were greeted by Paddy the dog. Overall 10 out of 10 stay - would stay here again.
