Bulls, Rangitikei District Community and Real Estate market information

About Bulls:

If you ask the locals, \"why do you enjoy living here?\" they reply, \"we love it, it\'s easy to live here, easy to get around and you\'re only half an hour to Palmerston North, 15 minutes to Feilding. It\'s a small rural village, very safe, and you feel part of the community\".

Bulls is world-famous for its a-Bull theme around the town, and of course, the town website had to be unforgetabull! Many visitors on foot love to take photos of the a-Bull businesses and organisations. Bulls is also known as the \"bullriding capital of New Zealand\".

The town and surrounding district draws people from all age groups. Two fantastic schools: Clifton and Bulls operate in the area. There is also the RSA and the Bulls Friendship Club.

The Bulls Historical Museum is always worth a visit and each month there is a new window display. Two grand homesteads are in the town (Lethenty, a private residence, and Beccles Historic Homestead with its very own chapel).

RNZAF Ohakea is only 5 minutes away and the town has always had a close relationship with the aiforce base.

Rangitikei Golf Club is a great meeting place for the locals and out of town people as well and if you want a great whitebaiting spot, then Scott\'s Ferry beach settlement is only 20 km away. Why not try some trout fishing in the Rangitikei River?

So you\'re invited to come and discover just what\'s on offer here; simply ask at Inform-a-Bull for a town map to check out our unforget-a-Bull town!
