However in Gaelic Folklore there are stories of humans who visited the homes of the Sidhe, the 'fairies' of Gaelic tradition. These people would stay with the fairies for what seemed like a few hours, but when the returned to the everyday world, they would find that many years had passed. And so it is at the Fairways, a night of two with us and you'll feel like you've been gone for eons. Qualmark 5-Star Qualmark is New Zealand tourism’s official mark of quality.
