  Descripción

  Hi there,
  We are a family of 4 living on a 528 Acre farm in the Hawkes Bay. Wee have a 6 Acre garden, a daughter who is 15, & a son who is 17, they are at boarding school in town during the week & come home in the weekend. You will stay with us in our house & enjoy the comforts of our hearty country cooking. We are currently undertaking an environmental planting plan over the whole farm to mitigate climate impact, & control erosion, by growing a nursery of Truffle inoculated Cork trees & planting & maintaining these out on the farm along with Native planting. This is a family owned farm, & no commercial business activities take place on farm.
