A Rural Retreat

Our 1970s, Lockwood farmhouse is great for larger groups or a couple of families. Situated 5 mins off SH 3, halfway between Hamilton and New Plymouth, it is the perfect location to enjoy your next adventure. Options include walking, horse riding (BYO horse), adventure riding, trout fishing, duck shooting, fishing, whitebaiting, diving, swimming or just enjoying farm life and a bit of peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Enjoy it all here in the King Country.
