Herons Ridge Farmstay, Te Kauwhata
Welcome to Heron's Ridge, your home in the Waikato. The tranquility of our farm and sport horse stud in the hills of the Waikato is a perfect setting for your stay, close to the shores of Lake Waikare.
Set in 25 acres, Heron's Ridge occupies an attractive secluded setting midway between Auckland and Hamilton. Although both cities and their international airports are within 1 hours drive, you would never know as we are away from all the traffic. State Highway 1 between Auckland and Hamilton is 10 minutes drive away.
We are just a 15 minute walk to the shores of Lake Waikere and of course you are welcome to explore our farm where we are creating a small nature reserve. John will be pleased to introduce you to our stallions and mares together with their foals who are usually born in the spring (Nov to Dec). We also have some cattle, goats and sheep. No farm is complete without some friendly pets like our talkative oriental cat and two black labrador huntaway dogs.
Both our new qualtity Garden Studio and the in-house bedrooms are appointed to ensure your comfort during your stay with us. Overlooking the garden and farm paddocks, this is rural New Zealand at its best.
Breakfast and Dinner is served farm house style around a large table where we delight in serving you a scrumptious breakfast with a wide choice to suit all tastes. Fresh tea and coffee are available on request.
We ask our guests not to smoke in the house as a courtesy to the other guests.
The self contained Garden Studio is attached by a covered portice to the main house and comprises a queen size bed with en suite shower and toilet, a small kitchen and lounge. In the studio you can prepare your own meals or have meals provided and served in the main house. Alternative arrangements are available on request.
