“It is an utter privilege to be in such direct communion with this mountain. Tuao Wharepapa/Mt Arthur – at times she is cloaked in creeping mists but when she reveals herself she can be breathtaking. Much of the year she is snow covered yet whatever the season her presence is powerful and poignant.

I purchased this property firstly in order to continue the important conservation work started by Penny and Steve Palmer who birthed the vision, and secondly in order to make it available to many other people in order that there may be communal benefits from spending time in this zone of deep serenity and awe.

This valley has been tugging at my heartstrings for 25 years now and I feel a deep commitment to listening to, and caring for, the land and creatures here. By staying here you enable this work to continue and I have no doubt that you too will be deeply touched by the essence of this valley.”
