Retreat to the farm and enjoy the native bush and stream.

August Sept- we have lambs!

Overlooking the garden, the studio unit is the perfect space for your break away from home or stopover.
There is a queen bed in the main bedroom and fold out double sofa bed in the lounge room.
A single mattress is available to place on the floor. All bedding and towels are supplied. A digital tv can be viewed in the lounge room. It's not a smart tv but there is a chrome cast available and Starlink Wifi.
You will be warm in winter and cool in summer with a Daikin system on the wall. There is also an electric blanket on the queen bed.
The kitchenette houses an electric jug, toaster, microwave, electric frying pan and induction cooker. There is also a full size fridge/freezer in your room; as well as plates, cutlery, mugs etc.

Want to experience the farm animals? Ask about feeding the 2 Kune Kune sisters or the friendly sheep and ducks.
Need time to unwind? Walk through the native bush and sit by the stream for a while. You might even see the resident eel or spot a range of native birds. Come for a walk with the dogs.
