This is a very special, very Kiwi place – a working dairy farm, tucked right up against the Tararua Forest Park, well off the beaten path. The countryside is beautiful, and hosts Adrian and Janeen are kind and hospitable. I specially appreciated their willingness to let me charge my electrical car at the house where we stayed. It was wonderful to explore the farm and wade in the river, which is clean and clear thanks to the care with which Adrian and Janeen run their farm. They left fresh creamy milk in our fridge which was the best I've ever tasted! My daughter and her friend loved feeding bread and carrot peelings the very friendly sheep in the adjacent paddock, and were thrilled to meet one of the farm cats as well. A weekend that we won't forget.
