Q&A
What is the best season
to stay on a farm?
Each season has its special
points and highlight and anytime of year will
give you a special memory.
I would like to help
on the farm but I also would like to do lots of
activities.
Please talk with the
coordinator on your arrival. With good
management you can enjoy everything.
Can I have a Farmstay
and a Homestay experience?
You can stay on the farm
for a short period and then change to a homestay
in the city. This is a good way to experience
the farm then move into the city for English
study or sightseeing.
A professionally coordinated farmstay program with Lets Homestay is the ultimate way to experience New Zealand's lifestyle. Stay with a New Zealand family and enjoy being part of their day to day life.
Farmstay hosts are families who live on farms, orchards and small lifestyle farms generally within 20-40 minutes of City. Farms are isolated and are generally not close to shops, banks and other amenities. There are no bus services so transport is limited to the host family support.
Every farm is different and your host will be able to give you a special experience based on the way their farm works. Some will have lots of animals, some will have just a few. Some with sheep, some with cattle, some with rabbits and chooks. Whatever kind of farm we place you on we can guarantee an unique experience.
- From 4 nights OK!
- Carefully selected host
- Orientation on arrival
- 24 hour support
- lots of activities to choose from
