Lavericks Bay Camp and Cabin.
Self-catering accommodation in New Zealand.

Our Story.
FARM
This historic farm has been in Harriet's family since the 1850’s, with the current children of Lavericks Bay being the seventh generation. A 1000-hectare sheep and beef farm, regenerative farming principals are working their way into the daily running of the property as the family strive to leave the land a part of a thriving eco-system. Lavericks Bay, which formed part of a volcano over 6 million years ago, is located within the Eastern Bays on Banks Peninsula, and is under 2-hours’ drive from Christchurch. It is just over half an hour from the beautiful historic French settlement of Akaroa.
