Enjoy a choice of continental or full breakfast . We are spoiled with our own free range eggs as well as honey from our own beehive to spread on your homemade breads. Enjoy locally reared ‘Havoc” bacon and seasonal fruits and herbs freshly picked from our garden.
Enjoy your breakfast inside or out on the deck taking in the views while you eat. Breakfast can
be brought to you or join us in the family kitchen/dining room.
The menu for the evening meal alters according to seasonal availability of fresh fruit and vegetables. We provide 'home reared' meats and organic meats for our guests. Our aim is to provide fresh and minimally processed foods to enhance wellbeing.

Available by request is an aromatherapy bath in a stunning claw foot bath – large enough to fit a couple comfortably. |

Also available are outdoor baths - a relaxing
or romantic experience, where the stars and night lights of Waimate can be enjoyed in a private setting while you bathe in essential oils.
