Our cottage is situated up a long tree lined driveway, and well off the main road. Just opposite the old Wanstead Hotel and cute church. Wanstead is a picturesque valley, only 15 minutes from Waipukurau. The local beaches are 30km away , a 25 minute drive. The main home is only 100m away, but the living is on the far side, so your privacy is maintained. The cottage is part of a working farm, with a historic woolshed in its views. This is the place for a break away from busy lives, with no cellphone coverage. Wifi is now available in the cottage. I have everything available if you have little children. High chair, mountain buggy, cot, children's books and toys are all available. This cottage is on the same driveway as another accommodation option - if you have more family / friends wishing to stay in this area. Look for 'A quiet, secluded farm residence' - Host is Margaret under Porangahau area. Property # 20032376. Special conditions: Pets allowed with our approval, as this is a working farm. Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$50.00 per stay).

About the host
Hosted by amanrs921
Don and I farm 350 hectare, sheep, beef and deer farm. We love the Flemington, Wanstead district. The cottage is now spare, as we built a new home in 2017. It is nice to share a wee piece of paradise with NZers, and tourists.
Why they chose this property
It is off the beaten track, private and peaceful. Plus is a separate building to our home, so an entire cottage to yourselves.
What makes this property unique
Close to Waipukurau, 45 mins to Hastings and to Havelock North, 1 hr to Napier.
