We live in the main house with 2 cottages rented out for shortstay accomodation next door. Each have their own outdoor area with barbecues for relaxing & dining. Te Awa has two queen-sized bedrooms + modern queen Ikea sofa bed in lounge/dining area Our other cottage Te Maunga next door sleeps 2 -4, 1 bedroom with same Ikea sofa bed in the lounge area. The photos hopefully tell our story- I love decorating and mix up a bit of antique with modern. Hopefully you will be very comfortable and happy here at Mahoetahi Farm. Be sure to take a walk down to our river boundary while you are here The best place on the farm! You can swim in the summer!
Please help yourself to the vegetable/herb garden. We love to share our produce eggs included when plentiful.

    We really enjoyed our stay with my family. The place was everything we hoped for and more. Everything we needed was there. The house is very well equiped and decorated. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. My daughter enjoyed spending time with all the animals at the farm, but especially the dog Rikki and the chickens :). Thank you! The Wilson family.

    Lovely rooms and outlook. Kitchen facilities wonderful and enjoyable to use with nice outlook out the window. Bathroom large and roomy and well appointed. Two bedrooms to choose from in the Te Awa and beds and linen comfy with large wardrobe space plus drawers and mirrors to use. Friendly dogs that check on you daily and easy access to main highways and surrounding area of the Taranaki. Gayle was wonderful to deal with when questions arose. Walk to the river is a must!

    Fabulous comfortable property. Friendly hosts for whom nothing is too much trouble (they even helped us out with jumper leads and offered a battery charger for the day when we ran into car trouble). Thanks so much.

    Not the best weather but the accommodation made it even more enjoyable. Cosy inside and lovely outlook. Very quiet, birdsong and animal sounds. Just the place I needed. Owner was very friendly and offered lots of suggestions on things to do and where to go. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

    Great welcoming hosts who shared their veggie herb garden and fresh eggs with us. Richie (dog) charmed us with gentleness. Landscape views are just the best. Comfort and decor elegance. I’m keen to return.

    The whare was ataahua. Location, decor and cleanliness was on point. My husband met the owner which he said was good to talk with her as she gave him the whakapapa of the whare. Will definitely come back and stay again. 100% top of the range. Best ever bnb I’ve stayed in.

    We enjoyed and love the place. Waking up each morning seeing the sun rises, horses eating and the peaceful surroundings is worth staying away from the busy life in Auckland.
