Alpaca Farm Retreat - Peaceful Rural Escape

Escape to a peaceful rural retreat at the foot of the hills in Wainuiomata. This charming countryside stay offers space to unwind, fresh air, and a unique farm experience with friendly alpacas and free-roaming chickens. Wake to birdsong, enjoy scenic surroundings, and relax under the stars. Just a short drive from Lower Hutt, it’s the perfect blend of rural charm and convenience for a memorable getaway.
This is a fantastic, special please to relax, unwind and enjoy a bit of off-grid living. Please note this property is on solar power therefore we do ask that you are mindful of your power use. We recommend you avoid using multiple high power items at the same time as excessive use can cause the odd outage.

The main source of heat is the fire - there is plenty of wood in the plastic trunk on the deck. Please let us know if you need more. The house is designed to ensure it retains the heat once the fire is going. There are also plenty of blankets for your comfort.

Drinking water is also provided - there is a supply left out on the bench for you to enjoy.
There is some information at the property in a printout, outlining the areas for guest use. We just ask that you respect the privacy of the main house.

This is a working farm, so we ask that you leave all gates as you find them to help ensure the animals don't move into areas they shouldn't.

You are welcome to feed the chickens and alpacas at the property - information on this is at the house.

Please note that a $200 refundable security damage deposit is taken on your credit card - this is refunded 7 days after check out.

Stunning property, stunning views, lovely and cosy in the winter up by the roaring fire. Blissful not being in the hustle and bustle of the city, but not so far away your in the middle of know where. With the shops a short drive way. Very clean and tidy. Maybe could of done with one more pot. The animals are very friendly the kids loved meeting the animals here. Easy communication with host. We aren't quite what you would call an eco friendly family but we have learnt lots of new things that will benefit us as we go home look forward to coming back
