Our Location
Directions to Ica Station Homestead (1st Night)
By road - Please don't rely on SatNav (it directs you to our neighbours property!).
At the North end of Masterton there is a Mobil Service Station. If you click your mileage trip meter here, you will drive for 42 kilometres total. There is no petrol station from here, so it may be a good time to fill up!
At the Mobil Service Station turn onto the Castlepoint/ Riversdale Road and follow that road for 23 kilometres to the Riversdale turnoff on your right. Take the Riversdale turnoff (also signposted Whareama) and drive for approx 14 kilometres to the Whareama Church (small white wooden church on your left hand side).Turn left at the church (signposted Castlepoint/Tinui), this is the Langdale Road. Approx 400m up the road take the first right turn, signposted Ica. At the next T Junction (after the one-way bridge), turn left (signposted Ica) and stay on this metal road for approx 3kms until you reach the Ica Homestead wooded entrance. Come out of the woods and follow the drive around to the Ica Homestead front door - we look forward to hosting you!
