Who are we? - Braemar is a working station, farming perendale sheep, beef cattle, deer and also offering farmstay accommodation. Dry air, hot summers and cold, crisp winters with vast and spectacular views of Mt Cook, the Southern Alps and Lake Pukaki, are its feature. The lake offers great trout fishing, boating and numerous picnic spots off the beaten track. There are great farm tracks for mountain biking and walking. We are 30 mins from Tekapo, 40 mins from Twizel and 1 hour from The Hermitage, Mt Cook. Just bring your food, friends and camera to enjoy our unique and peaceful part of New Zealand.
