Have you stayed in a cabin - or do you have one at home?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

When Luke Pepper and wife Shannon built an off-grid cabin on their King Country beef farm, it was only ever intended to be for the family to enjoy.

But despite the hut only being “a few kilometres” from their house, the Peppers found they didn’t have time to use it.

The Taumarunui couple didn’t want the luxury abode to go to waste so they decided to rent it out for short term stays, and are among a growing number of farmers doing so, according to a tourism leader.
