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

All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
