Climb the hill, pet the goats and ponies, check out the Alpacas or just stay by the beautifully warm log fire in winter or sit on the deck listening to the birds looking at the beautiful view. Staglands Wildlife Park and the Karapoti Track nearby, Upper Hutt 20 mins and Wellington 50 mins so we have it all! Come and try it!
