Wake to birdsong, enjoy scenic surroundings, and relax under the stars. Just a short drive from Lower Hutt, it’s the perfect blend of rural charm and convenience for a memorable getaway. This is a fantastic, special please to relax, unwind and enjoy a bit of off-grid living. Please note this property is on solar power therefore we do ask that you are mindful of your power use. We recommend you avoid using multiple high power items at the same time as excessive use can cause the odd outage.
The main source of heat is the fire - there is plenty of wood in the plastic trunk on the deck. Please let us know if you need more. The house is designed to ensure it retains the heat once the fire is going. There are also plenty of blankets for your comfort.
Drinking water is also provided - there is a supply left out on the bench for you to enjoy. There is some information at the property in a printout, outlining the areas for guest use. We just ask that you respect the privacy of the main house.
This is a working farm, so we ask that you leave all gates as you find them to help ensure the animals don't move into areas they shouldn't.
You are welcome to feed the chickens and alpacas at the property - information on this is at the house.
