Ask a questionAbout Leanne & Richard Seddon
We moved back to Kaikoura after years and years of the hustle and bustle of Sydney to be closer to relatives and to live in this lovely lifestyle block and relax.
Why Leanne & Richard Seddon chose
It is a place you'll remember, and such a great place to live and relax. We have lifestyle blocks and we are able to have some farm animals that we raised since young and love being able to let our guests experience our lifestyle and also get up close to some friendly animals that you just cant get to when in a city (or too scared too)..
What makes this House unique
Come experience a bit of our life - this is your opportunity to get up close with some friendly farm animals and to stay in a unique accommodation house that was built from recycled materials. You will be able to unwind and relax. We aren't just a stay - come and have a different unique stay that you will be sure to remember - you will be glad you did! We will take your photos when we are with you and the animals so you can totally be engaged in what you are doing - yep, its a chance to put the phone or camera down and let us capture you!
