About this bed and breakfast

Mill House is a fully furnished, four bedroom/one bathroom home that comfortably sleeps eight. Full linen supplied as well as a scrummy continental breakfast. Whether you are travelling through or looking to getaway, Mill House can provide you with tranquility and relaxation. It is in the heart of the Pohokura Valley on farmland surrounded by nature and beautiful scenery. This lovely home was built in the early 1900’s by the McCluggage Family, who operated sawmills in the area. Their endeavors included the construction of a tunnel, in 1924, at the rear of the property to provide access to timber on the Whangamomona Saddle where it still remains today.

It is located approximately 50kms from Stratford and 10km west of Whangamomona. The house is visible from Forgotten World Highway SH 43. Mill House is also pet friendly and comes with a resident cat. If cat's aren't your thing, she is happy to camp outside.

The Mill House was a fabulous stopover on our way through the Forgotten World Highway, a highlight of our trip. A charming country cottage with high quality amenities, lovely furnishings, and everything you need, plus unexpected bonuses such as sitting by the log fire with a cosy blanket and a very friendly cat, fresh eggs for breakfast, and watching the dogs rounding up the sheep in the morning. Highly recommend for families - kids would love feeding the chooks and giving the cat her treats!

Pictures don't do the property justice. Incredible amount of space for the price. Clean, country views, well detailed and appointed rooms. The highlight of the North Island segment of our trip.
