From the untouched heart of Taranaki, New Zealand, in the remote hills of Ahititi, Kōtare Station has over 3,000 acres of dense indigenous bush, rich native birdlife and breathtaking views. Amongst thriving biodiversity we raise deer and produce an exquisite range of Mānuka, native and wild-flora honey, born from purity with rich flavour. We have two wonderful accommodation options, both with off-grid solar and hydropower to experience wild New Zealand. Horse trekking for experienced riders and deer hunting are guided activities with costs to be confirmed based on requirements.
