Take me to....
Descending from the “Dry Hills” of southern Marlborough a quite fantastic sight greets you – the stunning Pacific coastline of North Cnterbury! Flanked by the majestic Kaikoura Ranges on the landward side and the Pacific Ocean on the other, this is a trip of pure magic.
Buy your dinner absolutely fresh from a roadside crayfish stall. Go whale watching or swim with the dolphins at Kaikoura; ski at Mt. Lyford then head inland to the fabled hot pools of Hanmer Springs.
See the strange limestone formations and explore the wild rivers of the Hurunui or sample the wines of Waipara.

We offer you a warm and friendly welcome to our family home. Surrounded by the beauty of the sea and farmland (part of the Kaikoura Peninsula) we are ideally situated for walking around the Kaikoura Peninsula or to the Seal colony.We have two queen guest rooms each with their own ensuite bathroom. Relax in the garden, sit on the veranda or wander over to the beach to enjoy the peace and quiet of our rural setting. If you are an early riser make the most of the sunrise.
The Point farm originally covered 600 acres of farmland and ran 2000 sheep. Today we have 90 acres and run 300 Drysdale sheep on the farm which forms part of the Kaikoura Peninsula. While staying at The Point come and see the sheep shearing show and catch up with the famous "Ram Man"; he eats out of the palm of your hand. Please note: there is an extra charge to attend our Sheep Shearing Show.
