Staying at the Stream Side Country Manor is a ABSOLUTE MUST. It’s not just a stay, It’s an experience like no other. If you are thinking of going to Hobbiton then this place is the perfect retreat. The house is full of character, built using 10th century carpentry techniques the joints and beams are held together with pegs. It is cosy and stylish, a beautiful house in a wonderful farm setting. I would absolutely stay here again!

This house is just gorgeous! Beautiful wood and so tastefully presented. Our children and grandchildren arrived just after we had lit the fire, it was warm and welcoming and a magical start to a family weekend. Enough bedrooms for us all and so comfortable. The weekend was full of activities, golf just down the road, Hobbiton for the teenages, and I had the beautiful gardens to explore with the grandchildren. Highly recommend this accommodation, we had a wonderful time. The hosts Caren and David were just lovely. We will all be back!

A Perfect Country Escape!We had such a wonderful stay at Streamside Country Manor! The house is spacious, beautifully decorated, and feels like a cozy home in the Shire. It was perfect for our family celebration plenty of room for everyone, a large dining table for shared meals, and a fully equipped kitchen that had everything we needed.The setting is just stunning — lovely outlook with expansive rural views, so peaceful and quiet, a real escape from the hustle of city life. We spent lots of time out on the covered patios and the kids loved running around on the big lawn.Great location too, right across from the golf course (hubby was desperate to escape and have a round)only about 20 minutes to Hobbiton, and close to walks in the Kaimai Ranges. We left feeling completely recharged and can’t wait to come back!
