Whakahā

For families who understand that true luxury is time spent together.

A fully provisioned space where peace and play coexist, where three generations can slow down and reconnect. 

Twelve private hectares where the Rangitata winds below, Mount Peel watches over everything, and ancient native forest stands five minutes from your door.

We created this as our escape. A place to tune out the noise and truly be together. Days here find their own rhythm: mornings cooking with local ingredients, afternoons exploring the river or disappearing into thousand-year-old tōtara forest, evenings that stretch long around the fire. 

The architecture frames what's always been here, the mountains, the river, the enormity of the sky. Thoughtful touches let you exhale. 

Everything you need is already here, so you can focus on the adventure of being present with the people who matter most.
