Directions: From Inglewood, head along Tarata Road, passing Kaimata School at the 7km mark, keep going, up and over the Tarata Saddle. Take the first road on your left, Toetoe Road.  Please drive carefully - it is a no exit gravel road and the 1st km is shared with the neighbours. Expect a vehicle at any time, or a mob of sheep coming towards you!  Our farm starts 1km up the road. When you reach the MataRata Downs sign, continue straight, I will put POP sign up. You will drive alongside the Waitara River on your right.  291 is at the palm tree gateway, but continue down the hill, past the caves on your left and river on your right. The POP is just along on the right.  Additional Info: We operate a 465 hectare sheep and beef farm, please dont go wandering into the paddocks, but free freee to walk or cycle along Toetoe Road. The location of the POP is very safe, private and serene. If there is enough interest, we may offer some agri tourism activities, based on the time of the year. For example, morning tea and a cuppa in the Woolshed, or a farm tour. Plus we are in the midst of developing a farm hike 5-10km options. Restrictions: Dogs on leads, must be dosed for Hydatids
