Horse trekking at Colville Farm Holidays

Colville Farm Holidays is on a 1,260 hectare sheep and cattle farm, 30 minutes drive north of Coromandel Town. It is operated by Zane and Ngaire and their extended family and has been run by the Evans family since 1864. We love this farm and enjoy the opportunity to share it with you.

Accommodation includes backpackers house, on-site caravans, bush lodges and self-contained houses.

Activities on the farm include horse trekking, range-top walks, and bush walks to waterfalls. You are also welcome to become involved in the running of our farm. Broadband Internet access available.
