Nestled in a tranquil valley, the Kaituna Valley Homestead is lovingly cared for by Sharon and John Robertson. Built in 1900, this grand old house exudes the charms of a bygone era while utilising all the comforts of modern living. The property is set on 29 acres of unsurpassed rural landscapes.

John and Sharon Robertson have four grown up children. They share a passion for hospitality and for the peaceful countryside. It has been a long held dream of theirs to own a place like the Kaituna Valley Homestead and now that they are here, they have been working hard to create a haven for guests. Along with the bed and breakfast, John and Sharon have a walnut orchard, some sheep and cattle and an extensive garden. There is also an original orchard that they are quietly restoring in their spare time!
