Stay At Ranginui Retreat
Escape to the stunning Wairarapa and experience the beauty of summer at Ranginui Retreat. Surrounded by nature, it's the perfect place to explore, unwind, and rejuvenate. Enjoy peaceful accommodations with breathtaking views, cozy amenities, and fresh air. Whether you’re hiking, wine-tasting, or simply soaking in the serenity, Ranginui Retreat offers a revitalizing getaway. Book now! Please note that we do not accommodate anyone under 17 year old. As we have working farms nearby and livestock on the property we are sorry, but we do not allow pets.
Guests are welcome to explore the gardens, use the pool and all-weather tennis court, play petanque or croquet in the gardens, or sit and chat with your hosts.
With its enviable location in the Northern Wairarapa, Ranginui Retreat also offers more than just what can be found within the grounds. Hike in the beautiful Tararua Ranges; checkout local vineyards; fly fish with a guide in the local rivers; explore the beaches at Riversdale and Castlepoint; or even take a helicopter ride into the back country or to fly over the wonderful Wairarapa. As night falls, snuggle up in an Adirondack chair by the brazier and gaze in awe at the Sky Father’s (Ranginui) amazing display of stars.
With their two trusty helpers, Coco (Labradoodle / ‘Head of Security’) and Biskit (Briard / ‘Chief Guest Liaison Officer’) Rob and Susie look forward to welcoming you to their rural haven. Explore, unwind, relax and enjoy the wonderful countryside which is the Wairarapa.
Explore, Unwind, Rejuvenate and enjoy the wonderful countryside which is the Wairarapa.
