Testimonials

We absolutely loved the cottage {the Schlupfwinkel}, the hosts have done it up so well, it was very clean and cosy and was the perfect spot for a little Winter getaway. There was an outdoor fire, and great amenities in the cottage including USB charges, gas heater and hot water. We drove to the property via the Danseys pass, which was amazing! And the Dansey pub is a great spot for dinner. We will definitely be back!

Nous pensions trouver un endroit calme au milieu de la nature: nous avons trouvé un emplacement unique et magique : nous étions seuls au monde!!! La hut est petite mais il y a tout ce qui est nécessaire et essentiel . C’est un lieu hors des sentiers battus et Kerrydawn nous a accueillis avec une très grande gentillesse: nous avons longuement discuté le lendemain et nous sommes repartis enchantés du lieu et de notre rencontre avec sa propriétaire : inconditionnels de la ville et de la consommation: s’abstenir , pour les autres : highly recommended!

It’s just so much more than expected! Beautiful old cottage that have everything you need especially those simple but comfy furnitures, you can just fall asleep on the sofa while staying warm at the fire place with your cup of tea. Kerrydawn was there to greet us on our arrival and also before we leave. Definitely recommended!

Loved our stay in this tiny but cosy cabin on Ivan & Kerrydawn’s farm. The location is wonderful, an overlooked pocket size cabin looking down a unspoilt valley. We enjoyed a warm sunset on the porch with a glass of wine and a simple supper cooked on the gas stove. Later the stars were incredible, despite a full moon. We were 3, two grownups and our 2 1/2 year old and thoroughly enjoyed the ‘glamping’ experience. Enough home comforts to stay warm, dry & cosy - but rustic enough to feel connected to nature in a way rarely experienced these days. On top of it all the hosts were very generous of their time and our son loved the chance to sit in a tractor or two! Thanks for a super stay.

홈페이지의 내용을 잘 읽어보고 선택했습니다. 뉴질랜드의 자연을 경험해보고 싶었던 우리 생각과 딱 이었습니다. 아무도 없는 곳에서 온전히 자연에 둘러싸인 이틀이었습니다. 숙소도 깨끗하고, 자연도 정말 아름답습니다. 호스트 할아버지는 정말 친절하고, 특히 제 딸에게 잘해주었습니다.

A unique and wonderful nature as well as people experience. This hideaway is more you could ask for while staying far away from everything and just taking in view, air and sheeps :). At the same time you have a hot shower, everything for a basic meal and a good coffee plus comfortable warm beds. Sitting down there it feels like somehow a cowboys or a gold digger could pass any time. We loved it so much! On top of it all Kerrydawn and Ivan are lovely and warm people. Very aware of life in general and a great pleasure to talk to. Everybody should have that experience. Oh and the alpacas...;)

What makes Goldfields different from other places is the sense of privacy and space. The cottage is surrounded by a lovingly tended garden and open farmland, making this a true country experience. The weather was on the cooler side but this only made our stay more enjoyable. There were reclining chairs, sheepskins, soft rugs and a wonderful roaring fire to snuggle in front of. Our children (10 & 7) were mesmerised and we felt totally relaxed and cared for. Our hosts had thought of everything. The house is simple, pared back, very clean and filled with personal touches that made this house a home. The garden is blooming with old fashioned roses and ripening fruit and the air is so sweet you could eat it for dessert. We spent a lot of time outdoors exploring Kerrydawn and Ivan's farm and getting to know the animals; ponies, horses, alpacas, chickens and sheep, as well as the birdlife that welcomed us each morning and lulled us all to sleep. The location is perfect, far enough to make you feel you are in farm country and close enough to fabulous sights and attractions, making day trips easy -truth be told, we always had to force ourselves out of the door because we loved our cottage so much.

Lovely warm, clean and inviting cottage. It is well kept with a fire for the cooler months and everything you need in the kitchen. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, it is close to a beautiful river which is great for swimming and exploring in the warmer months. Would definitely stay there again and recommend it to others. Hosts are more than happy to share their knowledge of the surrounding district, and even treated us to a tour of their lifestyle block and animals. So peaceful waking up to a beautiful crisp morning with young rabbits sitting on the front lawn. Nature at its finest. 

Suitable for all, families, couples, singles, groups. A home away from home.

Thank you so much for the really enjoyable stay we had Goldfelds Cottage recently. It was wonderful to enjoy the peace and tranquility of the area in a home away from home. 

So many interesting places to visit all within about an hours drive from Livingstone.
