About this Holiday House
Enjoy a truly relaxing, stress free getaway on a large New Zealand sheep and cattle farm.
Escape the rat race and relish the beauty of nature, the birds singing, streams trickling, stars twinkling and the native bush.
Relax on the sunny deck or curl up beside the cosy log fire. Pakira cottage sleeps five and is fully self-contained including games, books, magazines and toys - something for everyone.
There's loads to do here - tramping, mountain biking, trout fishing, swimming, photography, full farm activities, including sheep shearing.
Children love the animals.
