Imagine a special place just a few hours drive from Auckland, where all you will hear is the sounds of cows and sheep. Or the fat honey bees buzzing about the lavender and old fashioned roses. Or the bubbling stream as it passes by. Forget traffic noise, flight paths and construction sites. This is 100% pure, unadulterated tranquility!
