About this property

1900's Villa on the forgotten world road

Mill House is a fully furnished, four bedroom/one bathroom home that comfortably sleeps eight. Full linen supplied as well as a scrummy continental breakfast. Whether you are travelling through or looking to getaway, Mill House can provide you with tranquility and relaxation. It is in the heart of the Pohokura Valley on farmland surrounded by nature and beautiful scenery. This lovely home was built in the early 1900’s by the McCluggage Family, who operated sawmills in the area. Their endeavors included the construction of a tunnel, in 1924, at the rear of the property to provide access to timber on the Whangamomona Saddle where it still remains today.

It is located approximately 50kms from Stratford and 10km west of Whangamomona. The house is visible from Forgotten World Highway SH 43. Mill House is also pet friendly and comes with a resident cat. If cat's aren't your thing, she is happy to camp outside.

Relaxing getaway
Amanda is a great host, very welcoming and attentive, making sure every detail was taken care of. Lovely home, with lots of thoughtful touches and all the necessities one could ask for. Not too far from the highway - but no traffic noise and a very peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. Big fireplace that kept the home warm, and of course Kitten's company was a bonus.
