House Sitting Waikato

Waikato is located on the western and north eastern sides of the North Island, stretching from Lake Taupo and northern King Country to the Coromandel Peninsula.

Not too far south of Auckland you’ll find the stunning Waikato region; well known for it’s natural beauty and nature-based activities. But perhaps what makes Waikato the most famous is that it was chosen to play The Shire in The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit films.

Experience the vibrancy of the Waikato River and the lush rolling greens of fertile farmland The best way to experience the mighty Waikato River is from the deck of a classic paddle steamer, with interesting commentary on local landmarks, area history and life along the riverbanks.

Huge underground caves are decorated with stalactites and stalagmites. Visitors can float through the darkness in a barge on the water and admire the attractiveness and deep stillness of the cave, where the glow-worms overhead give the effect of an eerie subterranean starry sky.

If you are into surfing, the west coast town of Raglan is known throughout the surfing community for its gigantic left-hand waves. Even if you don’t do surfing, don’t miss out on Raglan’s idyllic lifestyle, as most of the residents are much more laid-back and easy-going.
