Super accommodation, fully stocked, extremely clean & very comfy bed & pillows. Quiet picturesque location with surrounding countryside and Llamas! Breakfast was left in the room, cereal, yoghurt, toast & fruit, quite delicious. We had booked anticipating crossing the Arthurs Pass the following day but due to road closures, we re-routed down the coastal road. The location of Ra-ata made this an easy decision. A great stay and would definitely recommend.

I booked this venue because booking.com stated it was pet friendly. Not the case which they advised me of after the 1st night!!! However they allowed me to keep my little dog there due to the confusing marketing. Apparently they can't get booking.com to remove that ...

Absolutely loved our stay! The bed was extremely comfortable, and the shower was hot with great pressure. The owners were friendly, and everything was clean, making it feel like home. We really appreciate the pet-friendly policy, as we always travel with our small, well-behaved, cage-trained dogs. It would be wonderful if more places accepted pets as they cause less disturbance than many people. A huge thanks for this! The cookies were a highlight—our toddler loved them! We will definitely be back when we visit Timaru!
