TUI RIDGE HOMESTAY

Relax, unwind and enjoy a slower pace of life with an escape to beautiful Tui Ridge Homestay, set in the picturesque Matahuru Valley, North Waikato.

Located in the heart of a working sheep and beef farm, this original farm cottage is nestled amongst stands of native bush. Private, secluded and inviting, our rustic cottage has been lovingly restored to ensure you enjoy all the comforts of home, while experiencing the best country life has to offer.

Located in the rural settlement of Waiterimu, just over an hours drive from Auckland, our unique farm stay experience gives you the opportunity to put your feet up and unplug from daily life. Curl up on the couch and read a book in front of a roaring fire, or enjoy a cup of tea on the deck (you might even spot a friendly Tui or Wood Pigeon swooping by).

The property offers spacious accommodation for up to 11 guests
across its four bedrooms.

Bedroom 1 - 3 x singles (3 guests)
Bedroom 2 - 3 x singles (3 guests)
Bedroom 3 - 3 x singles (3 guests)
Bedroom 4 - Bunk Bed double bottom and single top (2 guests)

Pull out couch in the lounge (1 guest)

Even in the middle of winter you’ll be warm and cosy with a fire (fully stocked firewood supply included) and heat transfer system in every bedroom.

Full kitchen and laundry facilities are available, and pantry staples are included as part of your stay. A BBQ is also provided. Or, if you wish to take a break from cooking too, order one of our hearty breakfasts, dinner or a delicious grazing platter.

All linens and towels are supplied throughout your stay, and you’ll be toasty at night with our 100% wool duvets (we are sheep farmers after all!)

Part of the charm of Tui Ridge is its rural location, and cell phone reception is limited, however Wi-Fi is available for the duration of your stay.

As proud farmers who are passionate about what we do, and committed to preserving and enhancing our land, we look forward to welcoming and sharing our little piece of paradise with you.

Self-check in from 3pm and check out by 10am.

Being a working farm and to protect our livestock, no pets are allowed.
