Located just north of Wellington in the Reikorangi Valley is our quiet Kapiti Accommodation
A bush-clad eco-cottage at the edge of the Tararua Forest, with beautiful views, sounds of birdlife, and the relaxing flow of the Ngatiawa River nearby. Our Kapiti Accommodation is located in stunning Reikorangi. Inland from Waikanae. 55 minutes' drive from Wellington, this new off-grid cottage is designed to work in harmony with nature and features a heartfelt nod to days gone by.
The Kapiti Accommodation Rural Retreat is an eco-cottage offering on-site bush and farm walks, visits to glow worms, a splash in the river, hill climbs to views of Kapiti Island and the South Island, and nighttime star gazing.
Sink into the sofa with wine in hand, the wood burner roaring, or cast your favorite online series. Snuggle in a home-spun, home-knitted rug from sheep off the farm, or sit by the outdoor fire pit, roast marshmallows, and watch the sunset.
There’s a lot to do locally. Waikanae is within a 15-minute drive from Kapiti Rural Retreat, with its sandy beaches and well-regarded restaurants, bakery, and pubs.
Truly innovative, the Kapiti Accommodation Rural Retreat raises the bar for unique luxury eco-accommodation in New Zealand.
Guests are welcome to explore our farm by walking our clearly marked tracks. Walk the adjacent Kapakapanui Loop track. Our cottage is only 15 minutes from Waikanae township with it's popular cafes, or head to Waikanae beach or local cycle tracks, designed for all cycling levels.
