Title

Centre Hill Cottage: Luxury farm stay retreat in Pleasant Point, New Zealand

Description

The Pleasant Point and South Canterbury district of New Zealand.

Centre Hill has been farmed by Ian Blakemore since 1968, and gained full organic certification status in 1990. Ian raised deer for venison and velvet production, beef cattle, sheep and crops. You are welcome to tour the farm and learn about its operations during your stay at Centre Hill Cottage farmstay, and to sample organic produce.

For those wanting to stay "close to home" during their stay, local activities include on-property swimming (pool), lawn tennis court (in season), and farm walks. The scenery (and peaceful atmosphere) is ideal for sketching, painting and photography. Pleasant Point - a five-minute drive away - has local artisan shops, restaurants, a golf course, and a steam train and museum.

Nearby Pleasant Point is a two-hour drive from Christchurch city, or can be reached from Wellington by direct 1.5-hour flight to Timaru airport and a 12-minute drive for the rest of the journey. Pleasant Point is the focal point of a vigorous agricultural, dairy and pastoral industry in the gently rolling, fertile South Canterbury landscape.
