Description
We have a large farm and tourism business in the South Wairarapa.
We farm sheep and cattle on steep hill country. Alongside this we have a three day walk over our farmland and have three different cottages where our guests stay. We supply our guests with meals and accommodation and we also carry their bags to each destination for them.
We live and work in a beautiful environment by the ocean with wide open spaces, bush and pristine river valleys.Types of help and learning opportunities
