It may be winter and the snow has arrived at some places across the country.. so it’s a great time to start planning a trip as you search through places to stay, hot coffee in hand and getting excited about then places you can go! That’s such a fun part of the experience of booking a holiday & the island is great to visit any time of the year! If you’re staying with us in winter.. take advantage of the fireplace, heatpump & woodfired sauna to keep cosy or if you are coming in spring/summer, know that you have the most relaxing space to come back to after all your adventures outdoors. Don’t forget about autumn either, often with warm, calm days that will help you totally chill out - check out our availability now through the links in the bio. Thanks for stopping by!

The new Kiwi Loop track at Five Ferns is now open & ready for nighttime adventures! Grab one of the red light torches provided & head out to see if you can spot a precious Kiwi! This is a 5 minute, easy pace track that is great day or night to explore - our top tips… wait for a cool, calm evening with no full moon - enter the track quietly & choose a spot & wait to hear some rustling & hopefully you’ll be lucky enough to see one! Kiwi love cooler weather & in Autumn/winter you don’t have to stay up too late to wait for darkness! For a full guide or more information on wildlife tours on the island, please check out the compendium in the lounge.
