We are a boutique Bed & Breakfast on a little hobby farm offering breathtaking rural views and stunning sunsets all year round, located in Waimauku – the gateway to Muriwai & the Kaipara Harbour – 30min northwest of Auckland.

Beautiful Landscape

Whether you would like to explore nature, watch stunning sunsets, relax or be thrillseeking – the area offers something for everyone.

Our Animals

Guests at the farmstay can enjoy lots of cute and friendly farm animals around – Alpacas, cows, chickens, ducks, goats and the cats.

All of them have a story and many of them are rescues.

You are invited to join in at feeding times or to have a pat. You can also enjoy some of the free range eggs for breakfast on the weekend.
