Vista onto the stunning green rolling hills of Haurata

Stunning Gisborne Walks

Enjoy the Haurata experience, great for family getaways, walking holidays, self catering if preferred, a romantic escape or just to experience New Zealand. This diamond in the hills could be your next escape.

The environment was absolutely stunning, we've never seen this kind of high country in the North Island. The waterfalls were like something out of a movie and we had them absolutely and exclusively to ourselves. To relax in the hot tub after a great day's walking was bliss. We felt like we had the whole farm to ourselves. Can't wait to get back.
