★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 非常特别的农场体验,喜欢小动物的小朋友会有福气。农场主三代经营,商业气息尚不浓厚,比较实在。进出农场有几公里碎石子路,开起来要慢一些。几只牧羊犬很可爱。
Very special farm experience, children who like small animals will be blessed. The three generations of farmers operate, the commercial atmosphere is not strong, more realistic. There are several kilometers of gravel roads in and out of the farm, and it will be slower to drive. A few shepherds are very cute.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An absolutely fantastic place to stay. I had a great time together with my son staying at the property. Karen's life story of how she decided to open up the B&B should be an eye opener for everyone. Life is too short, but I would gladly spent more of my short life at this place.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My stay at Karetu Downs was simply perfect. If you are looking for an authentic kiwi farm stay experience this is the place to go. It’s hidden away enough yet just a short drive away to the Waipara wineries. What makes this place unique is also that it’s an actual working farm. Bruce runs the farm and if it’s season, you probably get a hand at shearing the sheep or tailing some lambs. The homestead itself is soooo beautiful with a huge garden, a stream running through it and lots of farm animals. Lambs, chickens, pigs, ducks, dogs and even a donkey. You get to feed the animals with Karen, explore the property freely or get Bruce to bring you up to the top for magnificent views. Theres also a jacuzzi tub that’s free for guests to use. We stayed at the Musterers room and it was absolutely wonderful. The furnishings is luxe and decor thoughtfully laid out. There’s a kitchenette in the room with everything you need. Karen even has milk, butter, cookies, honey (from her property) and 3 types of jam waiting for you in the room! We also had breakfast the next morning at the family dining room which again was fantastic. Eggs from the chicken coop, homemade muesli what more can you ask for.
I must say my interactions with Karen and Bruce the couple who runs the place, is what made my stay so special. Listening to Bruce’s experience running his farm and reading about how Karen decided to start this farm stay is truly touching. You can tell how much passion and love they put into their little business with all of the details that makes your stay as special as possible. Thank you so much Karen and Bruce for sharing your special gifts with us. I cannot wait to be back and spend more time at your place.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you come to NZ and you want to meet really nice people and some cute animals like sheep, pigs, Ducks and chicken. If you want to watch the stars in an area without light pollution. If you are looking for a real comfy bed and a very nice accommodation, then you have to come here. Even if it basically is in the middle of nowhere. Awesome place. If I was to come to NZ again, I would definetly revisit. Come and check it out your own.
