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)

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?

My first priorities are implementing a 2x wheelie-bin recycling system, and investigating cost savings through council rubbish bins & organic/composting bins too. Getting the basics right, the nice new facilities are nice to have, but we need to ensure the core council services aren't neglected.
In this years election, you will get to select SIX city-wide candidates (as well as one ward councillor). By putting your trust in me, you will be supporting a candidate with strong family values, an eye for thinking outside of the box, and using technology to make the council more effective.
I would be very grateful for your support to make Lower Hutt an even better place to live, work and play for everyone.
Please feel free to ask me any questions :) I will also be doing a weekly Q&A for the next two weeks of the elections (and at least once a month if I am elected, keeping you in the loop with what the council is up to)
