Activities
There are a range of exciting destinations and activities nearby, all within an hour's drive of Kereru Farmstay. Use our farmstay as a base to explore the beautiful Nikau Caves, Sunset Beach at Port Waikato, Limestone country and "Weathertop" out of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The Onewhero Golf Course is a mere 7km drive away, on State Highway 22. This road is also the scenic route south towards Waitomo and Raglan. Miranda, Waingaro and Te Aroha hot pools are all within 30-60 minutes drive away. There are several regional parks and reserves close by for you to enjoy too.
If you are a motorsport fan, you've come to the right place! We are the closest farmstay accommodation to Hampton Downs Motorsport Park and the Meremere drag strip.
