Location
50 Years of Farming Sheep in New Zealand
Join us on an extensive working sheep farm in the scenic Lake Coleridge High Country just one hour’s drive from Christchurch. Bordered by the braided Rakaia River, Middle Rock farms over 7,000 sheep producing fine wool for the apparel trade and export lamb for international meat markets. Our farm tour, with its excellent on farm road access, specialises in experiences for touring coach groups. Our farm stay is a popular choice for families, international visitors, small conference groups, and those wishing to enjoy the many recreational attributes of the Lake Coleridge area.
An intergenerational farming family, Charlotte is now the farmer supported by her husband Vince and parents, Bruce and Lyn. As a family we have enjoyed hosting international guests, farming groups and conference delegates since 1990.
