About this property

Funky idyllic Barn with private spa/swimming pool

Are you looking for accommodation with a difference? We invite you to relax and enjoy The Vicarage Barn, the renovated Barn/Stables of the historic Vicarage. Stand-alone and fully self-contained, The Barn has a unique character complemented with modern facilities. Two upstairs bedrooms both with comfy king and single beds and space for an extra fold away bed if required. Downstairs a heat pump and pot belly fire keep you toasty and warm while you watch tv or play records on the turntable. We offer an optional laden breakfast tray. All of our handcrafted wines are available for purchase and enjoy on-site, along with beer from our local craft brewery, The Brew Moon Brewing Company. Set in the heart of the Waipara Valley wine region, the Vicarage Barn is the ideal place for couples, family or groups of friends to get away from it all. Relax in the private indoor spa, wander the established grounds, enjoy a long lunch under the veranda and absorb the beauty of the Waipara Valley while enjoying a glass or two of our boutique wines. Private and romantic for couples, with families and small groups welcome and children provided for.
