Ohariu Farm Cottage is the perfect choice for a romantic getaway. Just north of Wellington's urban highlights to the Johnsonville basin, the countryside soon changes from suburbia to farmland, the road from urban to country lane.
Ohariu is a long-established working farm of 1200 acres where the owner's have capitalised on their proximity to the city by refurbishing a huge shearing shed as a wedding venue. Well able to cater for the largest wedding party, there's a real ambience to this setting.
What could add more than a romantic boutique Farm Cottage surrounded by steep hills of peaceful farmland? Built in the early 1940's this rustic little cottage has been renovated into a cosy self-contained retreat. The bedroom of the cottage merges with the dining area and kitchen - a tastefully decorated area of comfort. Continental breakfast ingredients are included and if you can bear to leave this idyllic, romantic setting then pleasant local restaurants are just 10 minutes away.
The Cottage attracts romantics for a stolen weekend. Time out in this completely private and peaceful farm setting is rejuvenating indeed. And what's best? Fill the bath out in the garden with water, light a fire under it with the wood provided and when warm take your partner, a bottle of wine, lie back and count the stars. Romance at its best!
