Peace and tranquility in Whakapirau

Our little family of 3 had a very relaxing few days staying in the cabin. We loved sitting on the glamping deck enjoying the quiet and the beautiful views and wandering down to the water and mucking around on the shoreline. Cabin is really well set up with everything you need and Valerie is the best host and even bought my son a little birthday present We enjoyed a few activities in the area including the Ruawai cycleway, the Kauri Bushmans walk and a trip to Waipu for pizza and to check out the caves.

Excellent host and bach

Karen was a wonderful host and the accommodation was in pristine condition. It is a great place to come to relax and recharge. Waipu Cove is also quite close. The fire burning stove was so cosy on the rainy night.Thank you also for the extra treats we found in the fridge and cupboards. The library with interesting books was a bonus. We really enjoyed our short stay, thank you!
