    So peaceful, lovely having a place to ourselves in such gorgeous surroundings. We spent 2 days exploring the area and getting some much needed rest. Thank you Jan and Craig.

Peace and tranquility. Relax and enjoy the views from the deck, or snuggle inside with the fire roaring making it hard to leave the cosy Lodge. Set in park like grounds, Ohuka Lodge is a separate, fully contained house, your home for your stay with us and totally private. Kelly, the lamb, and Lucy the cow, are always keen for an extra feed of nuts and fond of a scratch around the ears. so please enquire about feeding them and you will make their day! At Ohuka, we are a woking farm so seasonal activities like shearing and movement of herds of cattle and flocks of sheep are happening daily, along with other farm activities, Come and experience a farm tour like no other, encompassing amazing views, native bush and waterfalls, maybe even catch a glimpse of a deer. Walks range from a stroll to hours, your choice! Are you up to the challenge of landing a trout? Seasonal fishing is available on the Waikaretahiki river winding through our farm. These tours and all farm activities need to be planned into our farming calendar, so please indicate your interest when booking.
I'm a mother to four children aged between 23 and 18 years old, with Claire attending boarding school in Napier,William at Canterbury University, Alex in his last year as a Diesel Mechanic apprentice and Hannah as a Management . My husband, Craig and I are sheep and beef farmers, on our Ohuka property. I love the outdoors and enjoy most aspects of farming, although it is not such fun when it is cold and raining!
