Search Castles in Takaka Hill

"There were beautiful views from every part of the property. The grounds were quite extensive with tracks that were fun to walk to see the native trees. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. Units were well kept, clean and well appointed."

"Excellent tranquil location"

"We loved the location and the indoor/outdoor areas compelled us to cook in instead of heading to one of the many incredible restaurants at Mapua which we'd been looking forward to. That tells you how good it felt. It has a great outdoor fire and covered seating area which was perfect at the end of a cycling day and heading into a cooler autumn evening. It worked well after we tidied it up although there is no lighting out there once it gets dark. It sleeps 9 with bunkbed options and there were 8 of us/4 couples. A bit of a squeeze and only one bathroom - all of which we knew beforehand and made work. "

"Good views and comfortable. Instant hot water in shower. Good laundry."

"We arrived and were personally greeted by Steve. I’ve been too many accommodations in my life and I have never had a host like Steve. He was absolutely superb. We originally planned to stay for two nights and because of the.Bonhomie of the place we stayed a total of six days and five nights. We would have stayed all the way to the end of our trip. This was an unexpected find and you have a really open mind. I highly recommended to book this place. Just remember, it’s not the faint heart. "

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The house was perfect and the kayaks/ paddle board were an added bonus. Location was perfect. Wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend!!"
