About this property

The Wee Glen - Peaceful Country Retreat in Glentui, Canterbury

Our charming house is ideal for your family getaway, reunion, or peaceful retreat!

The verandah offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape – great for morning coffee or evening relaxation. Explore the lush property with walks to the river and orchard. Bask in the sound of native birdsong.

Get off the farm and visit nearby:
Oxford Forest Conservation Area and Ashley Gorge for trails, waterfalls, and nature spots
Oxford town for local cafes, shops, and the Sunday farmer's market

Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and unwind in this spacious and cozy house located on our peaceful farm. Located at the top of our 16 acre farm, the house has
a mixture of beautiful nature views and views over the paddocks with goats, sheep, and chickens. With 4 comfortable bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and an office for any work or planning needs, this home is perfect for large or extended family trips.

Located within the Oxford Dark Sky Park with amazing views of the milky way and constellations like Orion's Belt and Matariki (seasonally)! Living space has a log burner to keep you warm on chilly nights and a heat pump for convenience.

We try our best to be environmentally conscious - food scraps go to chickens, we use non-toxic cleaning products, and separated recycling decreases resources sent to landfill.

We live on the property as well in a tiny house approximately 200m from the house. We respect your privacy and are out of view of the house. You will have your own private area with backyard and veggie garden.

Feel free to enjoy the property but be sure to close the gates behind you to keep the animals in.
