Had an amazing stay at the wandering hoof ranch! The property is so beautiful and very spacious. My friends and I felt very welcomed by Diana and her family. Response time was very quick anytime we had any questions. Would definitely stay here again!
Adorable cows and chickens, lovely family, this spot was a great stop! Would defiantly stay again.
Diana's camping spot is set amongst the rolling hills with a great mountain sunset. The tent site is secluded and is an easy check-in and set up! Would recommend this to anyone, thanks Diana!
The animals were beautiful and the owners are friendly. Cows, chickens, and even a big white rabbit. A lovely, safe place to camp out. Access to water and a toilet which was good. The animals weren't too loud in the korning but there were a few distant "MOOOOOS". Overall a nice experience.
Incredible place to stay, can’t wait to come back!
We stayed at the wandering hoof ranch for one night on our way up island. The campsite is located soo close to shopping centres but far enough that you feel like you are in the countryside. We bought free range eggs off Diana and loved them and the chicken they came from. (Very friendly) Unfortunately, the Highland cows were scared of us, if we walked by them they would run off. But one day we went out for food and came back to a baby cow in our campsite. (It squeezed through the fence) super cute moment.


Awesome stay, super relaxing and great views ! 100% recommend for anyone. Diana was an amazing host. Great location, nice fresh eggs and huge site! Fiona the calf was the best entertainment too!
We really enjoyed our camping experience at Diana's campsite. It is super quiet with pretty decent views of the mountains. We had many animal friends to keep an eye on us, some beautiful cattle and some chickens, we even met some deer too. Overall it was a good camping trip. Fresh water is available and there is an outside toilet also.
