One hundred years ago, a 17-year-old set out from Havelock on a two-day journey in his home-made boat to deliver mail and provisions to families in the Sounds. That man was Eric Johnston, who together with his remarkable family, served the people of the Sounds for more than fifty years.

One of our oldest established stations, it is land typical of the East Coast Wairarapa: where windswept cliff-top paddocks and rugged hills grow the best carpet wool in the world, and where tough men and women have lived and worked the land for generations. Castlepoint's history has produced some memorable characters and endearing stories, and they have been brought together here, giving an insight into the working station as it is today - vibrant, successful and poised to take advantage of farming in the technological age.
