About this property
The sheep's retreat farmstay
Beautiful views to Mount Ruapehu. Staying on a working farm looking over paddocks full of sheep or cattle is something very special that you will write home about. Happy if you are travelling alone, as a couple, or a family with children. We are very child friendly but discourage pets for the protection of our animals. You will be amidst sheep in every room. If you have an additional group or a smaller group we also have the Cattle Stop Farmstay just down the road.

Why they chose this property
This quiet rural location is perfect place if you are working in the Rangitikei or in Wanganui. Great half way meeting place from Wellington and Auckland situated in the middle of the country. We also have another property just down the road to host more of your friends for a bigger meeting.
What makes this property unique
There is a bush walk up the road. The deck provides shelter to get outside if it is raining and also a perfect place to relax with a cuppa or a nice glass of something cold.
