 | We have large gardens and, being on a ridge, have extensive views over the gardens, orchard, farmland, Whangamarino Wetlands, Lake Waikare, surrounding hills and Te Kauwhata township.
Our small 6 ha farm/orchard has around 400 mature chestnut trees and we run about 60 ewes and lamb, a few calves and chooks. Guests are welcome to look around as long as they leave things as they find them.
The accommodation is flexible:
The Super-King room can either have a massive super-king bed or two king-single beds. A comfortable single trundler bed is available too. This room has an en suite including a spa bath with shower over. TV, radio and tea/coffee making facilities are also included.
|
The Queen room, as well as a queen bed, has a comfortable single trundle bed. It is next to the bathroom/toilet which is shared with the hosts at present (guests take priority). The room has TV, radio and a small desk and library of interesting books. Tea and coffee making facilities are always available in the kitchen across the hallway.
Both rooms have exterior doors so that you can come and go as you please. Garage parking is available.
Continental breakfast is included in the tariff and can be upgraded to a full cooked breakfast for a small extra cost.
A three course dinner (nibbles and a drink before, main course with a glass of wine, dessert and tea/coffee) is available for an extra NZ$35 per person if notified in advance.
Meals are also available nearby at Rangiriri Tavern, Cooks Landing, City Deli Cafe and Te Kauwhata Tavern.
Close by are Te Kauwhata township, Rangiriri historic site, Whangamarino Wetlands, three wineries and a beautiful golf course. |  |
 | Your hosts, Janet & John Free have lived in the district for more than 25 years (John being originally from England) and have a wealth of knowledge of the area (and New Zealand in general) which we are happy to share with you, if you are interested. You are welcome to join us at our table for meals (we hope you will) but we also will respect your privacy if you wish to keep yourselves to yourselves and eat in your room. The decision is yours.
Our home is a smoke-free environment but there are covered, sheltered outdoor areas for those who feel the need to smoke.
BEING ONLY 45 MIN DRIVE SOUTH OF AUCKLAND INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, WE ARE AN IDEAL FIRST OR LAST STOP FOR INTERNATIONAL TRAVELLERS. A QUIET PIECE OF RURAL NEW ZEALAND TO GET OVER YOUR FLIGHT HERE OR TO RELAX BEFORE THE FLIGHT HOME.
We look forward to hearing from you. |
