Private bush retreat
We absolutely loved our stay at Dreamcatcher, it has such a homely cosy feel about it and is very well appointed. I would definitely recommend this for a romantic weekend retreat.

Really loved the cosy space that felt like a second home. The short walk down to Whale bay was wonderful and the host was very welcoming and had great communication. Thanks for the great stay!

Lovely, quiet, comfortable getaway
Dreamcatcher is a great place to relax and get away. The location is about 10 minutes out of town which we enjoyed, as close enough to pop into town, but far enough away to be peaceful. Located really close to surf beaches and handy walks for our dog. The accomodation is lovely, everything we needed was there, it was really well stocked. Spacious, comfortable, restful, and the birdsong is gorgeous. Communication with hosts was super easy. We highly recommend a stay here.

Everything you could ask for!
This is such a beautiful property and was clean and tidy. Anything I could ever think of was already there! We almost didn't want to leave. Great cooking supplies and toiletries. The area that it's in is convenient to surf beaches and its tucked away in a private area with tons of plants around. Next time we go to Raglan we will definitely be looking to stay here again.

Honeymoon getaway spot
What a fantastic spot to get away to. Communication with the hosts was spot on … made contact early but left us alone while we were staying so we could enjoy the solitude. Wifi worked well. Having no mobile coverage at the accommodation was a blessing… although we did get it just down the road. Gas for cooking and hot water worked brilliantly. We are landscapers and really appreciated the well appointed gardens. Having ready access to a lovely spa was also great. The position - not too far from town - but far enough - was really good too. Highly recommend.

I felt welcomed by the heater preparing the space in a very stormy day. Was lovely to snuggle in as well as explore cruisy raglan. Definately my kind of town. I will be back. I liked the small drive to town so I could enjoy mini stops to soak up the wild west coast. So grateful

Dream Catcher Batch, Raglan
A little sanctuary, nestled in the hillside as you make your way down the path, lust green foliage surrounds you, and in the distance you can hear the waves crashing on the rocks. This is a fully equipped Batch, with everything you need. If you looking for some peace and quiet and want to be close to the beach, it's the perfect little spot. Erin the owner was extremely helpful and her communication was excellent. Pictures are a good reflection of the property, but they don't capture the amazing vibe of the property and all the little decor/design elements of the property. Dream Catcher should be on your list of properties to stay in, if you are thinking of traveling to Raglan, NZ.

A perfect gateaway!!
This was a perfect retreat for me! Very easy to find, yet tucked away and private. Just a short stroll from Whale Bay that has views you can never get tired of. Well stocked and has everything you need for a comfortable stay!And raglan is only a 10 odd min drive for supplies or restaurants. So much character inside and out. Soaking in the hot tub, on a cold, starry night, sipping a lovely drink was just what I needed! There's even a outdoor seating area with great ocen views, as you climb up the ladder in addition to the patio with bbq! Erin was a great host and even offered me an extra night for free when I booked! I can not recommed this place enough!!

The cottage was ok. Cool retro furniture. However, it had an old musty odor. And the plunger coffee pot was dirty. The milk in the fridge, which was included, was almost solid, due to being old. We threw it away.

It was a great little place! Very clean. Very kind. When we first arrived they were out of water for about an hour or so as they use rain water and had been very dry. No problem for us but she insisted we take take a sunset cruise with her boating company for the inconvenience. That was a beautiful and fun experience and would recommend if your there!
