    Absolutley nothing.

    This was one of the very best bookings we have used and we have travelled widely. Host was awesome meeting us in the dark with a late checkin, immaculately presented wee place which is pet friendly. Totally recommend and will come back again. Awesome by daylight as well. Thank you so much.

    Very comfortable bed and quality linen. Impressive bathroom with great shower pressure. Hosts provided everything you could possibly need in the room plus homemade fruit preserve and yoghurt in the fridge. What a treat! Nice decor, and well-placed furniture. Quiet and relaxing, with a very warm welcome from hosts and Nero, their dog. My dogs were welcomed, and hopefully, we will be accepted again in future.

    Ra-ata Farm is an absolute gem! We only wished we had more time there. There were so many lovely and thoughtful little touches, from lovely shower gel and shampoo to a variety of coffees to accompany the provided continental breakfast. The bed and pillows were soo comfortable and the room lovely and dark,Thanks to good blackout curtains, which helped us in getting the best sleep we had enjoyed since leaving home.

    A bit challenging to find with Google maps but well worth it.

    Highly recommended for comfort and value for money. Bathroom particularly luxurious. Location rural and very peaceful. There is a microwave in the unit and I suggest bringing something basic for tea as once you arrive here you will be disinclined to drive 10-15 mins back into Rangiora for food. Lovely dog was a bonus

    Super accommodation, fully stocked, extremely clean & very comfy bed & pillows. Quiet picturesque location with surrounding countryside and Llamas! Breakfast was left in the room, cereal, yoghurt, toast & fruit, quite delicious. We had booked anticipating crossing the Arthurs Pass the following day but due to road closures, we re-routed down the coastal road. The location of Ra-ata made this an easy decision. A great stay and would definitely recommend.

    Lovely comfy room with all the traits of home..We felt very comfortable there. Probably that nicest B&B we have stayed in and we have traveled the world. Rose, the Manager and her delightful dog were just terrific, and their kindness made the stay quite memorable for us.
