Great Rural Property

The property is in a lovely, peaceful location. The house has everything you need for an enjoyable stay, and is well looked after and very clean. We thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay. Check-in instructions were clear and easy to follow and the communication with the owners was excellent.The only thing I would suggest is that it would be helpful for potential guests if it could be pointed out, in the description, that reaching the property by car requires driving for several kilometres on unsealed gravel roads.

Brilliant restful location

Our family had a wonderful time at this property. Really handy for sightseeing across both coasts in the upper north island. Proximity to Kerikeri is an easy drive and the remote nature of the property was just what we needed. The property is well appointed with everything you need to enjoy a self catered holiday. Highly recommend friendly unobtrusive hosts and property. Thank you!

Peaceful, clean and a delight

The setting is north-facing, to bush and a rocky-bedded stream. Apart from the occasional sound from some friendly animal, you hear burbling water and wind in the trees. Inside everything is ‘proper’ and well maintained. The fire has copious supplies of dry wood replenished daily, from trees on the property. The couches are comfy and the kitchen is well-appointed. Ōkaihau is 10 or 12 kms away and has cafes and stores. It is a lovely small traditional NZ town. Village? The location is convenient for all the destinations in the area whether Ngawha Springs, Kaikohe and all spots around the Hokianga.

Northern Trip

Cottage was perfect. Well equipped warm and comfortable. Hosts were welcoming and kept us stocked up with wood for the fire. The Public road may be a bit of a challenge for some - winding and a shingle section with large potholes but lovely private snuggly cottage at the end of the day suited us perfectly.

LYNRIC FOLD, HOME AWAY FROM HOME

My sisters and I rented Lynric Fold Cottage for 3 nights stay, and after a very long journey, it was such a tremendous pleasure to arrive at this lovely place owned by Lynley and Rick who are the absolute perfect hosts. Both Lynley and Rick are so friendly, so warm and so very welcoming, we were made to feel right at home, straight away. This lovely place has a beautiful countryside with trees, streams and the most gorgeous Scottish highland cows with a gorgeous soft looking shaggy fur, that just makes one want to go up and cuddle them. Oh, and we cannot overlook their friendly dog Max who came and greeted us every morning very warmly, that we couldn't resist stroking and patting him, he certainly earned it. We also enjoyed many of the local attractions namely Paihia, Waitangi House, Kaikohe, Matauri Bay, Kerikeri and many other areas with their beautiful displays of forestry, streams, bridges, valleys, animals etc... Unfortunately, one day while in Kerikeri, some lowlife stole our car, which spoilt an otherwise perfect stay at Lynric Fold. Both Lynley and Rick on hearing of our mishap, showed us genuine concern and even offered to come pick us up from Kerikeri; fortunately, however we had local whanau support. But their love and care did not end there, Lynley and Rick, lit the fire, closed our curtains and turned the lights on for us, and brought us a bunch of flowers, so when we arrived home we truly felt valued and that we were returning to our Home away from Home. Thank you so very much Rick and Lynley, you truly are the best and we would whole-heartedly recommend you and your beautiful Lynric Fold to the wider world. Should we be returning to this area, we would definitely be returning to Lynric Fold. Nga mihi mahana nga mihi aroha, nga mihi kotahitanga ki a korua i nga wa katoa. Ma te Atua korua e manaaki i nga wa katoa. From us 3 Sisters TeMaari, Ema and Beatrice (Piatarihi)
