About this property

Tranquil retreat in close proximity to Auckland

Nestled in the farmlands of Ararimu, just 45 mins drive from Auckland city, this little gem is an oasis of tranquility, offering comfort and respite from the hustle bustle of the city. Our guest suite comfortably fits three guests, ideal for couples or small young families and has all the basic necessities to make it a home away from home. Offering a little kitchenette, washing machine & dryer and comfy beds with freshly replaced mattresses for the best sleep you can get in this peaceful countryside retreat. We also have fast internet (NBN) should you want to work remotely.

You can wake up to stunning views of the Ararimu countryside and see some of our local farm animals - cows, sheep and sometimes (if lucky) even our shy cat Simon. This hidden gem is not too far from Hunua ranges for a day of hiking or Waitawa Regional park to soak in breathtaking views of the harbour. Shops and amenities are a 15-20min drive away and it’s a good hub for daily road trips down south to Hamilton, Raglan, Rotorua or the Coromandel.

We stayed here to do a run in the Hunua Ranges and it was a perfectly great place to chill before run day. Very lovely and accommodating hosts that share their beautiful surroundings. Only 10 min drive to Hunua.
