The property is a natural waypoint to a multitude of destinations while being close to the main highway but quiet and secluded. As a lifestyle block it has many different animals, garden and orchards. There are 3 caravans for stays with a caravan kitchen available and a shower and toilet block. We have a creek running through the property behind the caravans and a bush block of mainly Totara trees sheltering the area from the south side. The animals we currently have on site are sheep (South Suffolk), pigs (Kunikuni), chooks, ducks, Guinea pigs, cattle and a dog.

We are 16 acres on a gentle slope at the west end of Whangārei near the Pukenui forest. We are in the process of rebuilding native forest as well as developing a new orchard. We have a well established banana grove which we harvest throughout the year. We are in a relatively quiet space for being just 15 minutes to town center and you'll wake up to rich bird song every morning and fall asleep to the sound of ruru calling from the trees.
We are a few minutes to the lovely Pukenui forest reserve, 15 minutes to Parihaka, 20 minutes to Whangārei Falls and Abbey Caves, 35-50 minutes to bay and open ocean beaches.

Enjoy views of Mount Manaia for lovely, peaceful sundowners, and wake up to the sounds of chickens, a wide variety of birds, and maybe even a few bunnies hopping around.

We had a great camping stay at Lekker Stay, thanks Magda!
The site is well located ons the intersection of two main roads within Whangarei Heads, close to the shops. The site had all the amenities we needed for camping comfortably. The hosts and their two dogs were very friendly!
Recommend Magda’s place to anyone else and will be staying there again in the future.
