Stress free, fabulous location, beautiful views, clean and great value for money. Lots of hidden gems around the place. Just down the road are the waterfalls and a beautiful place called falls retreat that does delicious pizza. Would stay here again.

We stayed here as it was next to the Lily Garden where are friends got married. They kindly mowed a walking strip for us. A great country stay, very quiet.

Franvannah Cabin was exactly what we were looking for during our visit to Waihi. We attended a wedding at the Waterlily Gardens next door which was a very short walk. Very comfy and tidy cabin with some great communication from the owner....

Welcome to our lovely cabin. The cabin is located on our farm and provides privacy, but we are easily contacted should there be a problem. We have tried to think of everything that makes a trip away easy and pleasurable. We have been busy this winter creating a track leading directly to the Hauraki Rail Trail. Although the contour is not flat it is still a pleasant walk to the trail. If you would like to make use of it, please let us know. Please note that smoking and vaping are not permitted on our farm.
We love our farm and location. Although we are no longer milking cows our cowshed is still operational and we do graze young stock along with our own pet cows and calves. We also have two dogs, two cats a miniature horse and her companion a sheep. We are happy for guests to request meeting our family.
Although we are rural Waihi township is only 7 mins drive away. The Waterlily Gardens is located next door. We do have a connecting gate which guests can utilize but it is through a paddock, so sensible footwear is a must. There are several restaurants such as The Falls Retreat, Downe Thyme and The Tandoori Chambers in our location. There is Karangahake Gorge, Waihi Beach, The Rail Trail and other outdoor interests locally.
