About the host
Hosted by Jean
We moved to Whanganui six years ago and bought our first ever lifestyle block. We love the peacefulness and all our animals love it too - two mini schnauzers, a cat who rules the place, Maggie the horse and some cows.
Why they chose this property
Brunswick is an easy drive into town and a lovely little community.
What makes this property unique
If you want a bit of peace and quiet just to unwind then you should enjoy staying in Flax Studio.
