About your host, Jessie
Ray and Jessie invite you to enjoy sometime staying in our lovely little self contained cottage on our alpaca farm. We breed alpacas for their luxury fibre and use it to create wearable art, what we don't use ourselves onsite we send away and get NZ manufacturers to make products for us which are sold online and in our farm store.

Our fully self contained cottage is located on our alpaca farm on the outskirts of Lake Manapouri, Fiordland, the walking capital of NZ. Close to Lake Manapouri. Our guest love to base themselves here to either be as busy hiking, fishing, biking, boating or just hang out with the alpacas on our farm and relax, jump into the spa pool and gaze into the Fiordland Mountains with a glass of wine or beer and star gaze at night-time.
Join hosts Ray and Jessie in feeding the alpaca herd during your stay, meet, feed and mingle with the different groups and be prepared to be enchanted. Free for guests staying in our cottage.

Super friendly hosts, Ray and Jessie, shared their knowledge and enthusiasm for their venture with us. Fed the alpacas and learnt heaps! Generously shared their time and expertise. Fabulously comfy bed, powerful shower, gorgeous luxurious outdoor spa under the stars, swished by the grasses, pure luxury , and a view to knock your socks off! This is a well appointed, practical cottage with everything you could want. Big wardrobe area, big bathroom and a full kitchen.
