equestrians. Accommodation options include:

The environment is conducive in producing a 'get away from it all'
atmosphere. Whether you're here for vacation enjoyment, a romantic weekend, family fun,
planning business meetings, brainstorming or team building, it won't be long before you
appreciate the value of escaping your daily routines into an environment that both clears
and opens your mind. The benefits will be reflected in what you experience, produce, plan
or create.
On the equestrian front, we offer fabulous year-round
riding (no mud!) as well as natural hoofcare, horsemanship, horse starting and lameness
and behavioural rehabilitation.
Adjoining the property on one side is Woodhill Forest leading
to Muriwai Beach, on the other side Ti Tree Farm, with fallow deer, sea views, lake swimming,
a small cross-country course, and a full set of show jumps. How does it get any better
than that?
Singles, couples, riding and pony clubs are all welcome, with your
own horses or ours. For those who don't want to ride, there is wonderful walking, and a
pony trap for trips to the lake. Also in the vicinity is a popular golf course and the
Parakai thermal pools. Historic Helensville is only 10 minutes' drive away.
And if you are looking for even more to do, we can arrange:
- Golf
- Flying Lessons
- Forest and Beach Horse Riding
- Cruising on Harbour and Ocean
- Ocean Fishing Charters
- Trout Fishing
- Quad Biking and Mountain Bike Hire
