Hello Sarah and Duncan
This email is to say a belated thank you to you both for the fabulous, if somewhat damp, walk a couple of weeks ago. In spite of missing out on the views, we had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It was so well organised, and the food and accommodation absolutely spot on. And we were extremely grateful to Duncan for coming to rescue us and so patiently walking us safely out. Thank you also for organising to get our bags back to us. Thanks again and kind regards Sally Ratapu

Hi Sarah
We were part of the group of 4 who did your farm walk last week and are writing to let you know how much we enjoyed the experience. We loved the isolation, 'getting away from it all' - not meeting other walkers along the way and the silences at night - have been telling all our friends! We particularly liked the variety of tracks each day - the bulldozer road, bush track, pasture crossings and finally the 9 river crossings on the last morning - challenges but do-able for this group in their 60's. The accommodation was excellent each night. I must admit it was lovely just lying on the bunk at night and looking out at the sky and the hills. The food was superb throughout - obviously much thought has gone into the menu - even variety in the lunches and a pavlova! The whole set up is very well organised - luggage transfers, beds made up and even our booze in the fridge. We highly recommend this walk. Regards, Lesley and Alan Brennan (Abridged) PS Would the chef share the recipe for the luscious lemon cake? I once tried a recipe and I think it's the one where lemon juice is poured over once it's baked but mine didn't turn out so moist.

November 2013 - We finished this walk yesterday and loved every minute. The scenery is stunningly spectacular, the food is superb - and the accommodation and transport are excellent. You have put so much effort into planning this walk - and it shows. Some measure of fitness is required, as at times this walk is challenging. However each day is vastly different from the day before, and always enjoyable and interesting. Thank you for a wonderful holiday. Best wishes and good luck for the future. Barbara Macdonald (the nearly 74 year old)
