45Dogs loved the space and troughs! Easy access to paddocks. Thank you.
55Fantastic walk, amazing space provided, my GSP will sniff out any gap in a fence so amazing to have a walk like this! Will be back and would definitely recommend!
55Such a cool place! Big smiles from us and the hounds!
55Everything was perfect. Thank you so much! Bowie loved it!
55We had a wonderful time letting our dogs loose at the Sniff Spot! They absolutely loved the freedom of running through the paddocks and spent so much time happily sniffing every single corner. It was great to see them getting so much exercise in such a spacious environment. While we didn't get to see any cows or sheep since they were kept in the outer paddocks, the dogs didn't seem to mind at all and stayed focused on exploring their new surroundings. We managed to explore three different paddocks during our visit. I do want to offer a quick apology to the host, as I mistakenly wandered into the pink paddock thinking it was the orange one! Despite my little mix-up, the experience was fantastic and overall great sniff spot for dogs with a lot of energy.
55A cool spot, our dogs loved exploring and running around in the long grass. Our lab kept wanting to jump in the trough (she did a couple of times) 🫣😅
55A great spot for our dog to be free and have fun in
15Very messy animal poop everywhere half the space not available for use
55Incredible, our dogs had the most amazing day. Will definitely be back!
55So wonderful to be able let my very high energy dog run free in such a safe and awesome environment!

Description

Tucked away from busy suburbia your dog will get to fully unwind & breath in the country air while exploring our expansive 15acre farm. Swimming in the big river, paddling in the smaller streams & puddles, running free in a natural environment & taking in new smells. We have benches for you to sit on & unwind while watching your dog happily bounce around. As we are a farm our paddocks change from time to time & occasionally you might get to meet our friendly goats & cows or see our sheep grazing the nearby paddocks. Our paddocks and exterior fences are deer fencing. Our farm offers gentle contour, wide open spaces, long grass to bounce in, tons of exciting smells & is fully deer fenced for safety. A hose is available to clean your dog off after their adventure at the front of the stables (dogs will need to be leashed, please let us know so we can turn water on for you), gated entry with a dog waste bin in each paddock. Note - you will still need some control of your dogs as the area is very large. PLEASE ONLY STAY IN PADDOCKS COLOURED YELLOW, ORANGE & BLACK. DO NOT ACCESS OTHER PADDOCKS - a map will be provided upon booking so please keep an eye out for it in your emails/messages. Please note there are other dogs living on the property but if you stick to sniffspot areas you won't have any issues as they are at the front of the property where house is & our dog park is at the back. **IMPORTANT prices listed are in USD and guests will be charged in USD. **

5 Acre wilderness, Private Dog Park In Alfriston, Auckland

Fully Fenced
5 acres

A great location for both owners and dogs to unwind, featuring a creek bordered by native trees that have stood for centuries. Park benches are scattered throughout, offering plenty of spots to sit back, relax, and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The space features two different water areas and a mix of long and short grass giving dogs plenty of opportunities to explore and play. The main creek has water all year round and is ideal for dogs that love to swim. There is also a new shallow water and mud play area that has recently been dug out, perfect for dogs that aren’t confident swimming in the main creek or for those that simply enjoy playing in the mud! This area is still a work in progress and will continue to be developed over time. Notes for Guests: ● The bank alongside the creek has several steep slopes leading down to the water, so please exercise caution if you have children with you. ● Winter months mean mud! While the pathways and grassed areas are currently not muddy, if your dog enjoys swimming it may be worth bringing a towel for the journey home. **new guests enter the promo code at checkout luluandtuktuk for an additional discount, using that promo code along with the signup credit will get you a 30min booking for 1 x dog for free or a discount off any other bookings made** IMPORTANT: All prices are listed in USD and guests will be charged in USD.

All prices listed are in USD and guests will be charged in USD Note: The private entrance is on the left, approximately 50m before 623 State Highway 16 (when coming from Kumeū Village). Our spot features open grassy space with mown walking tracks, mature pine trees for shade, natural logs for climbing, and a creek/pond that water-loving dogs will enjoy exploring. It’s a peaceful country setting with plenty of room for zoomies, sniffing, splashing and adventuring. There is off-street parking available. As the entrance is on a busier road, you’re welcome to open the gate and pull fully into the property before letting your dog out of the car so you can unload safely. The two paddocks available for Sniffspot guests are completely separate from the house, giving you privacy and a quiet space to enjoy your visit without interruption. You will have the paddock to yourself during your booking time.
