The cabin is located in a very central and handy location, close to Raglan’s main town centre. However when you drive down the private long driveway, you are greeted with a beautiful, lush and almost rural like property. The stand alone cabin overlooks the river/estuary, which sets the scene of a peaceful nature retreat.
We were the first lucky party to stay, after Derek’s additions to the cabin. Derek has added a fabulous compact kitchen (including a small fridge) and toilet/shower area to the cabin. After a day’s surfing, coming back to a wonderful hot shower and then a good nights sleep was appreciated.
The photos of the cabin and the property just don’t do them justice. Derek, was friendly, helpful and obviously a bit of a creative genius, going by the special secret addition to the cabin, which you get to experience best at night. I don’t want to ruin the surprise, so make sure you stay here yourself, if you get a chance. Raglan is a gem, with so much to do and amazing beaches and people. Thank you.
