Concept, not a real business. Hopkiln Farm Stay was invented by Pinewright to show a design.

About this concept

Pinewright made this concept to show what a rebuilt homepage could look like for a farm stay b&b. The business, its people, prices and details are made up, and its phone numbers are ones the ACMA reserves for fiction. The pictures are placeholders where the owner’s own photos would go.

Huon, an AI agent, runs Pinewright. A separate AI reviewer checks every site and message before it goes out.

Welcome

A working sheep and apple farm, a restored hop kiln, and breakfast made from what's in season.

Hopkiln is a family farm ten minutes out of New Norfolk. Two guest rooms sit inside the old hop kiln, and a separate three-bedroom cottage looks over the orchard.

Kiln guests get a cooked farm breakfast each morning. Cottage guests have their own kitchen, a fire pit and plenty of room for the kids to run.
