Golden Bay Glamping

If we knew how wonderful the property was, we would have stayed longer!

Great location, dog friendly and very serene. Loved coming back here!

Lots of sandflys! Be prepared

Great experience in an uncommon place. Fantastic view and very well designed room. The hosts were really nice and helpful, making the stay very enjoyable. If you go there, you must try the home made food. We had the best curry ever.

It would be nice to be more precise on the description regarding the gravel road to access the site. A bit challenging on a motorcycle. It is a “glamping” facility so go there with this in mind. Not a typical place.

The only unlucky specimens to visit Camilla and Ryan's peace of natural New Zealand paradise are the few wee sandflies. And even they must feel as blessed as me and my partner too have inhabited this amazing space for a too shorter time! What a wee gem of a spot up in this unspoiled piece of native new zealand bush. So we'll thought out and facilitated for your off grid needs. If you get the opportunity to taste some of camillas home cooked cuisine don't hesitate you won't be disappointed like the the whole experience. Thanks for having us and sharing what you've created.

We loved our stay at Golden Bay glamping in the orchard cabin. The first night was beautiful weather so we enjoyed the outdoor bath and stars. On the 2nd night the weather turned cold, but we were super cosy with the fireplace. It was really relaxing and even better than hotels we have stayed in! Definitely recommend for a relaxing, unique experience. Hosts were lovely too!

Lots of sandflies, so make sure you bring bug spray and insect candles. Also note no reception or WIFI so need to do your communicating while in town. This was a little problematic as we got a few messages late when we were meant to meet someone, but also meant we got away from our phones and could relax! Will also add its a little out of town so best if you have your own transport.
