About this property
Secluded Retreat on scenic hill country farm.
Set on a working sheep, cattle, deer and horse farm, 10 kms from SH1 on a scenic through route to Feilding and Palmerston North.
There are 4 golf courses within 1 hour from Mangaweka, including Rangatira Golf Course with it's 3 level course and unique cable car back up to the club house.
Locally there are beautiful gardens open to the public, including the renowned Cross Hills Rhododendron Garden 25 minutes away.
This is an area of river adventure - kayaking, canoeing, rafting (both white water and scenic), and of course trout fishing. The Rangitikei River is known as one of the best flyfishing (and most challenging!) rivers in the world, and we have the services of an excellent guide. Also on the river are the high-adrenalin activities of bungy jumping, bridge swinging and a flying fox.
Our river on the farm has wonderful swimming holes only 10 minutes walk from the house, and there is limited catch and release trout fishing. You can wander across the farm, or have a 4WD tour with David (conditions apply), visit the new born foals (in season) or feed the pet lambs and sheep.
Special conditions:
Pets allowed with prior approval, special cleaning charge can apply
Smoking outside only
Not suitable for children under 10 years
Extras: Cleaning (included); Linen (included); Single night surcharge (Optional, NZ$30.00 per stay); Dinner- 2 course (Optional, NZ$35.00 per person); Dinner - 3 course (Optional, NZ$50.00 per person); Dog fee, per dog (Optional, NZ$5.00 per night);
