We purchased this property as bare land in 2013. Since then we have worked tirelessly to get the property to where it is today. We began by building our Stable block, arena and paddocks. We then focussed on the Log Cottage before finishing our building projects with our home which was completed in 2015.

We are passionate about flora and fauna and have focussed on planting up our property with native plants in order to attract native birds. We are also keen to create a tranquil stop over for our visitors.

​Our property also houses our daughter's equine business, so for horse lovers there are lots of horses to look out on.

Jon

Jon works full time at Burnside High School, where he has been for the last 17 years. Jons' big passions are playing the guitar and enjoying nature and the great outdoors. Jon has lovingly planted all the native plants and trees on our property and spends most of his spare time watering and taking care of them. Jon also enjoys hiking and has done many of the local walks, as well as all the Great Walks in New Zealand, so if you want any tramping tips...just ask. Jon has also recently installed a 9 hole Pitch and Putt golf course around the property, which is continually evolving and offers many hours of enjoyment.

Jacqui

Jacqui works as a trainer for a New Zealand Based Student Management System, but she is often based at home. Jacqui's hobbies and Interests include, cooking, reading, travel, and helping out on the property either with the gardening or horses.

Jess

Jess runs a very successful equestrian business from the property. You may see her working some of the horses during your visit. Jess spends much of her time, schooling or selling horses for other people. She also brings on her own horses and spends many weekends out competing on her team of competition horses.
