About this property

Rustic cabin & large kitchen block nestled in a native garden.

Prairie Holm Farm is located along on the shores of Lake Wairarapa and stretches towards the rugged Remutaka Ranges. We are 13 km along Western Lake Road from Featherston township and 4km south of Cross Creek Road on the Remutaka Cycle Trail.

Cabins are nestled among five acres of regenerating native garden creating a peaceful retreat. The accommodation consists a two bedroom cabin block and separate lounge/kitchen block which is great for large groups.

The bathroom is a unique open "camping style" room attached to the lounge/kitchen block containing two toilets and two "wet floor" showers.

NOTE: There is no Wifi and Prairie Holm is a working Dairy, Sheep & Beef farm.

Featherston provides a wonderful array of quaint shops, cafe’s, a bakery, cheese shop and of course the famous Fell Locomotive Museum. On Saturday mornings there is a very popular fruit and vegetable market with fresh coffee and a local butcher on the BBQ.

Featherston Station has a rail service to Wellington and Masterton (bikes are welcome on the trains).

We are also within half an hour’s drive of Martinborough and Greytown if you’d prefer bustling boutique shops, vineyards, cafes and restaurants.

Lovely getaway
We loved our stay, we were kindly offered early check in and late checkout at no extra cost which was fabulous and meant that we could really make the most of a short break. The gardens are fantastic, filled with fantails and the call of ruru at night. We loved exploring and finding lots of surprises, and enjoyed a lengthy game of hide and seek! We loved the camping vibes of the separate sleeping block, and were warm and cosy with extra blankets and heaters, perfect after exploring in the rain. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed - including delicious coffee! Thanks to our hosts for a wonderful weekend!
