About this property

Riverside Romantic Cabin • Outdoor Bath • Waitomo

  • A romantic riverside escape for couples or small families.

    River Song is our original 35m² cabin, tucked away on our family farm near Waitomo. Small, beautifully considered and made for slowing down — with the river just beyond the deck and absolutely no need to rush anywhere.

    Sleep in the king four-poster, curl up in the cosy double nook, cook something lovely, then soak together in the outdoor bath under the stars.

    Outside, you have your own private river pool for swimming and kayaking, a tree swing, trout fishing and plenty of space to simply sit and watch the river go by.

    Explore Waitomo and the many day trips nearby, wander the farm, meet the sheep — or stay right where you are. River Song is particularly good at making plans disappear.

    Staying 4+ nights? We’d love to take you on a complimentary private farm tour, including film locations and parts of our farm we don’t open to the public.*

    *Subject to farm life and availability; not offered over Christmas/New Year.

Such a wonderful adventure

This is a special, one of a kind place. Nestled among a sheep farm and a river. Turkeys come by in the morning. Cows are watching all day. You feel complete privacy and have a stellar view to the beautiful surroundings as 2 walls are completely windows. Think of it as a magical camping experience with a luxury bed and shower. Every little special touch just adds to the charm. There is no dishwasher or oven, hence the camping feel. Plan to barbecue and make simple one pot meals and you will be in total heaven. My husband even caught trout down by the bridge
