    The full sized kitchen is generously appointed and equipped with everything you will need to cook a sumptuous meal - and there`s a BBQ so you can also dine outside on the large verandah. During your stay enjoy the comforts of the generous amenities provided. From coffee and tea, basic cooking essentials, to luxe bathroom amenities, Omaroo Cottage will satisfy your yearning for indulgence.

    Add the convenience of free Wi-Fi, ample car parking, acres of farmland to explore, hills to climb and even space to park the boat, Omaroo High Country Retreat is the perfect location for your next high country adventure all year round. Pet Friendly.

    Guests have exclusive use of the Cottage, are free to roam all the outdoor areas of the property, and have access to the farmhouse laundry and in-gound pool at the adjacent Farm House where the owners reside.
