About this property

WAITOHU LODGE Otaki - as featured in NZ House & Garden June 2020

When was the last time you unplugged from the madness and dove into nature? No, really?

Nestled into lush green forest an hour north of Wellington, Waitohu Lodge was built on the three Rs: relax, rejuvenate and revive.

There’s 2ha of Jurassic-like forest where the only sound is native birds and the breeze rustling the 100-year-old trees, a brand new 6m x 3m swimming pool to cool off in, a private bush-walk and stream where you can picnic and a stylishly renovated one-bedroom apartment (not surprising when one of your hosts writes for NZ House & Garden Magazine).

The space
Washing machine available on request
Coffee, tea and treats in room
Swimming pool (for guest use only)
Private bush walk on property with stream access
Must be dog friendly as there is a small dog on site
