This place is a slice of heaven! Our visit was in early Spring and the flowers and trees were freshly blooming. The home and property overall is stunningly beautiful. Our room was very spacious, the bed and pillows were super comfortable and we took advantage of the bed warmer to preheat before snuggling in for the cold night. Everything was so clean and well maintained. Both Jane and Stewart are such wonderful hosts. The breakfast spread was yummy. We got to try some of Jane's juice and jams she made, and Stewart's homemade sour dough bread (from starter they keep alive). We took them up on the opportunity to share a family meal with them, along with another family staying there at the same time. Stewart cooked an awesomely delicious Thai dish and Jane made a very tasty Pavlova for dessert. Jane shared stories about the history of the estate and people that had lived there, and took us all around the property showing us the plants and animals. The place is great for large gatherings and I could see why people would be tripping over themselves to book this gorgeous place for their weddings. Otherwise, such a great place to just relax, unwind, breathe in the fresh air, and take in a wink of country life. We can't thank Jane and Stewart enough for their gracious hospitality. Love them; love it all!

The only thing we didn't like was our personal schedule wouldn't allow us to stay longer.

Poached fruit and freshly homemade bread served with homemade jams. What's not to like? My room in the historic house was spacious and comfortable with beautiful views over the extensive garden. Jane and Stewart were delightful, caring hosts.

Nothing.

Tipapa Estate is truly a very special place. A unique experience made so by Jane and Stewart. Sharing their beloved fur babies with us and going above and beyond by showing us their property. Jane’s homemade jams and Stewart’s sourdough were delicious.

Everything was fantastic.

Jane And Stewart have created the most magnificent retreat. The gardens are superb, room was beyond expectation, quiet, comfortable and well appointed. Breakfast was next level with fresh baked bread, conserves and fruit. Cant wait to stay again for more than one night.

the property is stunning. Jane and Stuart are extremely welcoming and friendly, we were made to feel right at home. It is close enough to wineries and the hotels / pubs etc but also secluded to feel off the grid and relaxed.

A lovely property with very friendly hosts. Extremely spacious rooms with excellent bed and great dinner and breakfast.

For a winter stay the room heating could have been better, but understandable given the size of the rooms - and we were the only guests there at the time.

Homely. Friendly. Great hosts. A beautiful and quiet area great for Waipara wineries. Restaurants for evening close by are limited, fantastic lunch at Waipara Springs - need to book though!

Lovely property and lovely large room with a comfortable bed . Jane is really hospitable and welcoming . Wished we had more time to explore the property and Area a little more
