orchards
Tidy wee cottage in the middle of an orchard. Access with the trailer was a bit tight but owners let us park it on another space. There was another couple of cottages on site. No iron or ironing board in the lodge laundry or in cottage

Perfectly Friendly
Our stay was too short, but sweet. It was beautiful in every way. Waking up to the view of the Orange Groves, playing with the dogs and watching the chickens and pigs potter about their business was quite relaxing. The added bonus is the shower pressure. 20 out of 10!! I can't wait to come back. Thank you for a great Stayz

Relaxing in Wintertime
We had a nice stay even though it was wintertime. We enjoyed visiting the pigs and waking up between the orange trees. Thanks again Claes. We’ll visit again.

Doolittle relaxation
We loved the peace and quiet. The bed was very comfy and we had everything we needed in the kitchen. Nika was a favourite and the pigs DID sit on command! Lovely to come home with oranges too. Thanks

Orange orchard experience
Great secluded location but not far from the airport or shops in Kerikeri or Waipapa. Just off the main road.

Absolutely great stay at Relax A Lodge
Beautiful accomodation in a charming orchard. The place is super clean and quiet and extremely handy for Kerikeri and the coast. The owner was very helpful and maintains the accomodation to the highest standards. Absolutely recommended!

Very close to the airport and in the midst of an orchard grove. Peaceful with a very helpful host and very friendly animals. Would definitely recommend this property.

An absolute gem
We had a great stay here. Very relaxing. A modern unit with nice decor. Great for one or two people. It is not to big and not too small. A good base from which to do day trips, from but the cabin is big enough and combined with the orchard and swimming pool, it is a great place for a day of rest and relaxation. Friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended.
