“This is a charming extremely well-appointed home. Communication with Amanda was excellent, and Aaron met us at the property on arrival. Very heavy, recent rain meant we needed a 4WD to get across the creek to the property, and Aaron was there...”

“Incredible stay which not only ticked all the boxes but also fixed our souls, especially thanks to Kitten, the house cat. Plan for more than one night here; you won't regret it, as this truly is THE BEST ACCOMMODATION IN NEW ZEALAND.”

“Fantastic stay. The house is lovely, very warm with the open fire and heaters in bedrooms. Enough space for our group of 6. Owner very friendly and the extra bonus of ‘Kitten’ the resident cat was a bonus for us all.”

“Beautiful house in a stunning location. Very homely! We ended up spending most of our time there in the property or garden rather than venturing further afield as it was just such a lovely place to be. We enjoyed collecting the fresh eggs from the...”

Amanda & Aaron Harris
Mill House is a lovely villa, full of character. Built in the early 1900's, it has been restored to include most of era detail. It has recently been renovated, with more on the horizon. Tastefully decorated and includes 400 thread count sheets and high quality towels. Situated in a peaceful location just off SH43. Mill House is also pet-friendly and includes its own resident cat. She is very friendly and well-mannered but is quite happy to camp outside if cats aren't your thing.
We are a family of four that own and run a sheep and beef farm in Pohokura. Mill House was our family home for a number of years. When it was time for us to move to another house on the property, we couldn't just leave this lovely home empty - what better way to occupy it than to share it with the world.
Mill House is situated in a area that provides an escape from urban living and forces you to take time. Situated 50kms east of Stratford. If you are after a few activities to fill in your day, the village of Whangamomona is only 10kms west of Mill House. Get your passports stamped, enjoy a meal or a beverage. The village also has many historic focal points, a Mini Putt and The 'Dolly Gray' shop full of all sorts of goodies. Ask us about going on a farm walk or even a hike to a historic tunnel at the rear of the property.
