Introduction
Describe your property and the projects you need help with. The character limit helps it to fit on mobile devices and the printed book.   /2000
The Corner Stone is a 13 acre property which includes a small shop and a large cafe. We have extensive gardens including an orchard and a walking track. leading down to ponds and what will be a seating area .for our customers. We are situated on the corner of the road leading to the Coromandel, a tourist destination with amazing beaches and natural bush. The other road leads South to Matamata and Hobbiton, Tauranga and Rotorua. This is where you would stay. There is a self contained unit with a double bed, so it would help if you were a couple, also free wifi.

Thames is 25 minutes away, Ngatea is 13 minutes away and Kaiaua is about 20 minutes from the cafe.

We would like to have people who can help us to develop our property. We want to create a walking track with plantings, seating areas and ponds with fish, frogs and native birds so that our customers can enjoy a more interesting visit than just sitting in
