About this property

Cattle Stop

Staying on a working farm looking nestled among paddocks full of cattle or sheep is something very special you will write home about. Happy if you are travelling along, with children or a couple. If you are part of a bigger group we also have the sheep's retreat just up the road. We do discourage pets for the protection of our animals but you will be see cattle in very room.

This property was amazing. We loved our stay, such a wonderful experience and just the long weekend we needed to spend out of the city with family. Planning to come back, it’s a destination for rest and relaxation, within reasonable distance to beautiful cafes in local towns.

Bruce & Maggie's House 🐂🐂
We all had a wonderful night at the Cattle Stop. Even the rain didn't dampen our time. Loved all the cattle decor. Bug zapper or flyspray would be a good addition to supplies, as we had the windows open while we were cooking tea and we were invaded. In the mornings the fantails must have known as they came the house for a visist and feast.

Peaceful farm stay with beautiful outlook
We had a great stay on the farm at Turakina. We ended up staying in the Sheep's Retreat instead of Cattle Stop after a booking mix up which our host sorted out for us quickly and professionally. The location is outstanding, with beautiful views, clear night skies and wildlife to watch from the deck. The house is well equipped, especially the wood burner with plenty of fuel at the ready. Really appreciated the fresh coffee and breakfast supplies. We would love to stay again and share the place with more friends.

Great wee cottage
What a wonderfully peaceful spot. The lovely cottage had everything we needed and we enjoyed seeing the cattle, both pictures and toys, wherever we turned. A nice touch.
