In this blissful setting, it is quite common for summer guests to sleep securely, with doors open to nature. No setting in New Zealand is richer in history or nature. For ultimate comfort our pillows are soft duck-down and feather, our generous beds are orthopaedic quality, and duvets are purely natural wool and cotton. All rooms have private bathroms with robes, fluffy towels, hair-dryers, and native plant skincare creams. Massage is available on request, and our own natural spring water is free for guests who may also enjoy the dry Finnish sauna, and plunge tub.
Suites have access to our extensive CD library.
Our Bubbly Bakehouse Breakfast is served until noon. Our tasty muffins, like much of our luxurious food, avoid fats, refined sugar, white flour and high-cholesterol ingredients, yet through art and science may be rich in highest quality chocolate, fruits and flavours. Artificial flavourings or colourings and preservatives are not permitted in any Homestead cuisine. The four course organic gourmet dinner, available only by prior arrangement, has been awarded four stars by the most particular of lifestyle magazines, and often features freshly shucked oysters from the bay at our front lawn. Follow State Highway One north of Auckland for 2 hours to Whangarei, then continue north for 45 minutes to Kawakawa.
