Beautiful area

Guests love this home’s scenic location.
Set in an idyllic setting, this lifestyle block is only 10 minutes from Feilding but feels like a world away! At Brookfields you can retreat to the farm and also enjoy the native bush walks and Makino stream.
You can also feed the sheep, ducks and pigs and play with the dogs!

Have a massage with therapeutic grade essential oils and tuning forks, a special treat.
This whole property is smoke free!

The space
The self-contained studio unit
overlooks the garden and is the perfect space for your break away from home or stopover. You will have a kitchen sink, electric jug, toaster, microwave, electric frying pan, induction cooker and full size fridge in your room; as well as plates, cutlery, mugs, tea, coffee and milk.
There is a queen bed in the main bedroom and a fold out double sofa bed in the lounge. A single mattress is available to place on the floor. The Queen bed is made up and the bedding supplied for the sofa bed and mattress in the chase'. Towels are also supplied.

Please be aware though that this is a working farm. We will be up around 7am feeding the animals, walking the dogs, probably doing washing so you may hear the pump. If you are looking for a sleep in, this may not be the placefor you! Or you can come out and join us.😉

Rural wifi has certainly improved now that I've shifted to Starlink😊

Guest access
Walk through the native bush and along the stream. Sit for a while. You can also feed the sheep and the Kune Kunes.
It's only 10 min to Feilding. It has a New World, Countdown and a number of cafes and restaurants. If you need a bigger range, Palmerston North is 25 min away.

Other things to note
An important reminder: The whole property is completely smoke, vape etc free and no excessive alcohol.

Dogs
Being a dog lover I understand the desire to bring your dog on holiday with you.
However it's not about how 'well behaved' your dog is, but how I believe my dogs will respond to your dog being here.
I have had terrific dog owners who respected the unit and others who didn't. As a result I have taken the pet option off.
However, you are free to inquire with details about your dog and ill decide from there.

If you are travelling for shows-agility-obedience etc and crate your dogs in your vehicle and need a safe place to park for the night, please inquire.

Where you’ll be

Halcombe, Manawatu-Wanganui, New Zealand

There are walks around the farm, along the stream and in the native bush, birds to spot and frogs to listen to. Scout and her sisters will come running when they see you, and if you ask me for some sheep nuts to feed them, you'll be their friend for life! And if you bring an apple or two Posie and Dotie, the KuneKunes, will be extremely pleased to see you!
It's peaceful out here, but only 10 minutes from Feilding.

This is, indeed, a special place.
