About this property

Ruapuke Retreat - Rural Raglan & Coastal Views

The Woolshed at Ruapuke provides peace, privacy and picturesque scenery. It is situated at the base of Mount Karioi on an 850 acre working dry stock farm. It has commanding views of Ruapuke Beach and out to Gannet Island. The expansive views also incorporate extensive farmland and up to Mount Karioi. It is the perfect place to enjoy a quiet relaxing holiday, while Raglan is just a short drive away to enjoy the cafes ,boutique shops and beach town vibes.

Alternatively the Woolshed offers a central location for an adventure packed holiday. Ruapuke beach is a short drive to the Southern End and Northern end if you enjoy surfing or fishing. Horse riding is available within ten minutes or visit the popular Bridal Veil Falls. The Wairake walking track on the southern side of Mount Karioi is within close proximity to the start of the track. Additionally the Pipiwharauroa Walking and Biking Trail on the Wharauroa Plateau (Wind farm) is a must for keen cyclists or guests whom have an interest in the Te Uku Wind Farm. The opportunities are endless with paddle boarding, kite surfing, surfing at Whale Bay and Manu Bay, kayaking in the harbour, or a game of golf on the 18 hole country course all available within Raglan.

The Woolshed has been converted with a fresh contemporary feel inside. It has double glazing and insulation to provide optimum warmth and comfort. It also offers a fully equipped kitchen and a spacious open plan living area. The bedrooms and bathroom are spacious and the laundry is located down stairs where the Woolshed is still in its original condition. There is plenty of locked storage below for the surboards and fishing rods. The deck offers panoramic views and all day sun. Unlimited Wifi.
Upon request from the owner you can walk up the farm to take in the magnificent views of the vast coast line, over to Kawhia and Aotea Harbour as well as Mount Egmont.
Special conditions:
Two night minimum stay

Wonderful relaxing stay
We loved our stay at the Ruapuke Retreat and would highly recommend it to others!!! It was very quiet and peaceful with a lovely view of farm land and the ocean in the distance. The place was very clean, tidy and was well equipped with everything you need. Communication with the hosts was quick and efficient and we felt very at home. Our kids thought it was very exciting being on a farm We will definately be back. Thanks Evonne and Hardy 😀
