This boutique hotel offers a new owner the opportunity to combine a healthy and diverse lifestyle with an interesting and profitable business which naturally scales down during winter, allowing for a holiday.

Each of the five beautifully appointed suites has been subtly themed, providing individual charm as well as comfort. In the heart of the lodge is a spacious, recently renovated farmhouse kitchen enjoying garden and orchard views. A large woodburner with wetback heats the water for a series of radiators around the house, ensuring year-round warmth.

Organically managed, the four-hectare property provides the ability to live from the land with honey, fruit trees, berry patches, vegetable gardens, olives and grazing for sheep, cattle and horses. The small Chardonnay vineyard with a careful selection of clones produces a succulent house wine thoroughly enjoyed by guests from all around the world.

A range of useful ancillary sheds and buildings offers space for projects, hobbies, storage and accommodation for staff. Other facilities on the property include a petanque court, croquet lawn and small gymnasium overlooking the swimming pool.

This extraordinarily diverse and unique lifestyle is ideally located on State Highway One, less than a five-minute drive from central Blenheim and 15 minutes from numerous winery cellar doors, restaurants and the airport.

Offers from $2,500,000 plus GST (if any)

Bicycle dismantlers?

Siran and Carlos from Kerikeri District

Thankfully I was given an old bike recently, but it needs some serious TLC and parts. I guess I could go to a new bike shop and buy parts but It struck me that there must be literally hundreds of old bikes in Northland, what happens to them all? Is there like a bike dismantlers around somewhere? I understand that doing up old things isn't particularly desirable in todays consumer, materialistic environment but recycling IS becoming more and more popular and the older bikes where no doubt of much better quality than the Chinese warehouse machines of today so many probably only need a good clean and oil/ or can be stripped for parts. Am in the Kerikeri/Okaihau area, thanks for any info.

The National Party is considering a policy of fining parents $3000 if their children drop out of school and don't enter further education or training.

Simon Bridges says "The reality is if you're not in work, education or training, you're going to be languishing in a dole queue, and the evidence is potentially for a long time". Do you agree with this policy? Should parents be fined?
