Summary: If you have kids who would like to experience something new, loves farm animals and outdoors, this is the place. We stayed on October 24 on our last day in the south island. We were looking for something new and different and Wacky Stays delivered. It is not a brand new dwelling so please manage your expectations. The beds are comfortable and you can see the room was prepared with great care. We stayed at the Yurt/Gert. Our 8yo specially enjoyed the farm animal feedings which are done twice a day. Overall a good experience in our opinion.
