Pioneer Cabin (Sunrise) A self-catering camping cabin & farm stay experience

Welcome to 'Petersville Village' at Hidden Valley Farm. Get away from it all in our quirky off-grid cottages! Nestled in hillside meadows on the top of Takaka Hill in Tasman Bay.

Following a brief farm induction to cover health and safety you can expore the 400 acres of moorland, native forest and meadows that make up the farm.

Situated in a private countryside location overlooking views of Tasman Bay. Rustic, cozy, comfortable and unique space for an escape to rejuvenate. Listen to the birds, take a walk, enjoy the wildlife and farm animals roaming around this blissful paradise.

"High Country Living?" with an outback experience enhanced by the free roaming horses and impeccable Tasman Bay views. Escape the chaos and embrace the calm and simplicity with minimal modern tech, open flame fireside, chat under the immortal starry skies.

Sleeps two (double or twin), we can add a camp bed if needed for a third person. There is also a sleepout that can sleep a further two in bunk beds. This allows a maximum party size of five people

Enjoy your morning cuppa or a perfect evening tipple by the fireside while in the company of our resident farm pets and wildlife. Indulge in the breathtaking terrain enhanced by nature's changing scenery and birdsong.

The quaint stone cabin offers an open-plan sleeping area, with church-shaped doors that open onto an incredible mountain and sea view.

A covered outdoor camp kitchen, coal BBQ and gas ring, a small sink, and a cold box for your immediate needs are available and we supply the ice blocks . A rustic detached gas and a flush toilet area nearby.

Note: For your enjoyment and safety we suggest that the farm may not be suitable for children under the age of 10 years old. Alternatively please get in touch for prior arrangements so you understand the environment and dangers of a working farm.

Beautiful location and views in a rustic cabin
A rustic farm experience in a lovely cabin. Amazing sea and bush views and incredible star gazing. The farm is an animal sanctuary with horses, ducks, geese, chicken, sheep, cattle, pigs and peacocks which really added to the countryside experience. This is a rustic experience similar to glamping so if you're after the 5 star experience this is not for you. If it's a farm experience, excellent star gazing and friendly animals then this is the place! Terri and Jim were excellent hosts always checking in (while respecting our privacy) to see if we needed anything.
