Perfect for little adventurers, this play space encourages active play, imagination, and social interaction. Come explore, climb, and have a blast!

Wear comfortable hiking shoes that can get a little muddy.

Take a windbreaker or some wind/waterproof clothing along in the case of rain or changes in weather.

Take drinking water and power food along on your hike. Bananas, chocolates, or mixed nuts and seeds will give you that boost of extra energy.

Please do not pick any flowers, damage any plants or change the natural environment in any way.

Please do not leave any litter anywhere on the farm. Animals eating plastic and litter could be seriously injured or even fatally harmed. Bottle tops, beer and cool drink bottles, and cigarette butts have nothing to offer the earth. Please do not leave them behind.

Be safe. Take a cell phone with you.

No smoking is allowed on the trails.

All 16 tents offer the exclusive use of their own outdoor wood-fired hot tub. A wood-fired hot tub is the purest form of relaxation. Soak up the beautiful surroundings while listening to the calming crackle of the fire, or take a dip to cool down during the hot Wellington summers.
