Welcome to our home. I hope you fall in love with the place as much as we have. We built this home twenty six years ago with the mind of bringing our children up in an environment of beauty and resilience. This home has been the centre of many happy family occasions and holds many precious memories. I hope that this beautiful home will also hold a special place in your memory after your stay here. Our children have all grown and have started families of their own and are based all over New Zealand. David and I are now living in the loft above the garage which enables you to enjoy the whole house. Our goat farm is just up the road. David is up early every morning milking the girls and tending to their every need during the rest of the day. Once the children left I turned my sight to a new career as a homeopath. Completing my qualifications in 2020 I now run a growing practice in Matamata. As everyone started to leave I felt our beautiful home began to lose it's "heart". This home needs people, vitality and love that is why David and I decided to open it up for others to share and experience the incredible beauty it has to offer. By offering individual room bookings we hope to make it more accessible to a larger number of people. (if you choose to book an individual room please be aware you may have to share the experience with others) I hope you enjoy your stay and experience some of the joy we have had staying in such an unique and beautiful place for so many years.
