We stayed in Kowhai Cottage at Lavendryl Farm in Kaikoura for 3-nights in March during a tour of New Zealand. We had booked via the internet a number of months in advance of our visit and I chose Kowhai Cottage as it is a little bit bigger than Mahoe Cottage and we felt we needed a bit of space after...

We spent the two nights at Dylans Country Cottages in a comfortable cottage full of character and well equipped for self-catering, set in the manicured gardens of a lavender farm. Corry was a very friendly host and the fresh eggs and freshly baked bread and muffins waiting for us at breakfast each morning were a real treat! Dylan`s Country Cottages... More

My girlfriend and I stayed at Dylan's for two nights at the end of our NZ holiday and had a great time.

Some delicious home made... More

We stayed for 1 night and had to leave early in the morning. Wish we could stay more as this place is amazing. The Lavender was in full blossom and the farm is so tidy and beautiful with the mountains view. The cottage is cute but a bit small for 5 people as once the sofa is opened to a... More

It’s a magical place with all the lavender gardens blooming around. The cottage was very nice, well decorated, yet bit small. The homemade bread served in the breakfast was delicious. The only problem was with the sofa that served as a bed which was very uncomfortable for this purpose.
