About this property

Wilson bay farm, Pelorus Sound<br>A 5th generational historical family farm

WE ARE BOAT ACESS ONLY.
MINIMUM STAY THREE NIGHTS


This is a 5th generational farm with 640 hectares for you to explore. (Farming Romney sheep)
Although we are boat access, it is only 45 minutes by boat to Havelock.
We also live on the farm and own our own boat.
We have limited spark cell phone coverage.
The house is alternative power, cooking facilities are gas, and a generator is run twice a day for fridges, freezers, washing machine etc...torches or lanterns are needed for when the power is turned off.

Beautiful, modern, framos house, sectioned off, with its own garden, overlooking the sea.
This properties most beautiful asset is its remoteness, due to being only boat access.
There is a lot of native bush, home to many native birds.
The Te Rawa lodge (bar and restaurant) is an easy ten minute walk away. Kayak over for your morning coffee
Do some dolphin spotting from the wharf (they do pass by from time to time, and although not a regular occurrence we had orca swimming in the bay).
Our farm walk does a complete circuit around the property, which is a large peninsular. (SOME PARTS CLOSED DUE TO RECENT FLOODING).
you can go for a short walk to check out the glow worms.
We have unlimited internet available. Occasionally this does drop out because of our location and power system, but is pretty reliable.
Access to the most beautiful scenery in the Pelorus , with views stretching from the back of Blenheim to the North Island.
The mailboat runs on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays in summer (pre booking recommended) or book a water taxi out.
The water taxis leave from Havelock, and can be found on the internet. Or catch the float plane from Wellington straight to our bay!
Special conditions:
Smoking allowed outside only.
No parties
No dogs under any circumstances.

At times generator hours may change, e.g. if we are shearing.
This doesn't affect cooking, as it is all gas.

Extras: Cleaning (included); Linen (included)

Wonderful Stay
Kelly and Trevor were exceptional hosts, in their little piece of paradise. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome, including: fresh mussels, baked goods and a ride in their boat. We would love to return, thank you...
