About our AttractionPete and Gaye have lived in New Zealand all their lives farming cattle, pigs & sheep.
As of 2009 we have 3 grown up children and 3 grand children under 5.
Both love being outside on the farm, meeting new people, travelling and sport.
Pete will take you on a tour of the farm. Watch his dogs round up the sheep before he shears one just for you. Then enjoy a good traditional kiwi BBQ and maybe a glass of wine.
You can see Jessie the dog round up the mob of sheep.
You can hand feed the sheep and calves,
visit a herd of over 500 cows and see them getting milked
Go for a walk around the farm and experience first hand the quietness and tranquility of the area. |
