George and Debs Wood
This charming and spacious cottage was built 27 years ago to capture the sun and views in the grounds of one of Hawkes Bays finest historic homesteads. Situated half an hour's drive from Hastings and Havelock North, the property is nestled in a beautiful valley surrounded by sheep, beef and arable farms. The 10 hectare lifestyle block has a few horses, cattle and chickens. Frequent visitors to the cottage are a fox terrier and a fluffy cat. The 116 square metre house has been completely refurbished with new carpets, a new queen bed and exceptional furniture. Enjoy the peace and tranquility of the countryside in the heart of rural New Zealand. The farm buildings nearby are the workshops of Wood Mallets Ltd, an award winning, world renowned Croquet and Polo mallet manufacturer. The 116 square metre cottage has large, warm and bright rooms. Please note that on arrival you'll find fresh milk, bread, eggs and butter in the fridge, cereals in the pantry and seasonal fruit on the counter. This is provided for the first morning only.
We enjoy meeting travellers, and we take pleasure in sharing our unique lifestyle property with visitors. George runs a business from the farm buildings manufacturing polo and croquet mallets which are exported all over the world.
This is a particularly beautiful but typical Central Hawkes Bay rural valley. The 10 hectare property is surrounded by sheep beef and cropping. The Tukituki, one of the worlds best trout fishing rivers is only 3kms down the road. Otane is 5 minutes drive and Waipawa is less than 10. Hawkes Bay is one of New Zealand’s best holiday destinations with wonderful summers, wineries and many tourist attractions. Several pristine beaches are only 30 minutes drive away.
