We have found the most perfect place to stay in the world! Nothing is missing!! What an exceptional place you have made it with your genuine hospitality, meticulous standards and thoroughly 'unstuffy' atmosphere and the best food we had tasted all holiday! We hope to return to New Zealand one day and Timara Lodge will be top of our list.

Dear Michal & Louis, thank you for this most incredible experience! From the moment we arrived, we felt as if we were sharing a country home with good friends. Louis, every meal was exquisite and the wine pairings perfect! (Wow, that white chocolate custard!). Michal, your hospitality put us perfectly at ease - thanks - and thanks for introducing me to Pimms! I will miss the view of the lake from the breakfast room. Thank you again for an extraordinary experience.

Michal & Louis - the property of course is amazingly beautiful but we were most impressed with the quality of the service. The meals we've eaten have been without a doubt the best in New Zealand from Stewart Island to Cape Reinga. Thank you for being such gracious hosts. PS If anyone else is reading this, Louis' bacon is not to be missed!

We had a wonderful stay in charming Timara Lodge. The garden is more beautiful than ever. We hope very much that Louis and Michal will stay in this stunning establishment for a long time. It is wonderful to have such a charming, cheerful couple as hosts. And the knowledge from Louis of how to turn nature's treasures into tasteful delicacies. We will come again!

Truly one of the best experiences we've ever had at home or in our travels. Michal & Louis are two of the nicest most talented people we've met. We look forward to coming back soon. Thank you.

Dear Louis and Michal, We just wanted to say what a marvellous time we had during our stay at Timara Lodge last week - Timara goes way beyond hospitality. Michal and Louis make you feel as if you are staying with friends for the weekend! Thanks for looking after us so well.
