Doug and Jude
We are a small working farm, close to Cambridge town. We have a peaceful home, off the main road, overlooking lake Karapiro.
We are a family who relocated to from Auckland to enjoy an outdoor life with our family. We are an adventurous family who love to mountain biking, bmx, wake board, waterski, snowboard and motorbike.
We live on the shores of lake Karapiro, with the Karapiro Domain only 2.5 km cycle away, along the Te Awa cycle way. We are close to any events being held at the domain. Cambridge has plenty of activities as well, with the Velodrome and town square not far away either. Hobbiton is is 22km away and Waitomo Caves is an hours drive, so we are an ideal spot for all your Waikato adventures. For more things to see and do, go to our website or facebook page.
