Follow us on Facebook at Goldenbayglamping! Serenity on 100 acres of native bush with walking tracks, bush bathing, creeks and waterfalls, and an abundance of native bird life. Take advantage of the solitude of private bush, or use the site as a base for exploring scenic Golden Bay. The "bush hut" is a renovated 15sqm historic hut with a modern 10sqm sleepout, attached by a covered BBQ deck area. The hut is completely off grid and eco-friendly, with solar power, hot water outdoor shower, and composting toilet. Pet friendly (dogs must be under control at all times). Ample parking for up to large camper size vehicles. In addition to luxury accomodation we also offer (at additional cost): A range of catering options from the included basic continental breakfast with tea & coffee, to self catered BBQ, to fully catered locally sourced packages, all prepared with local produce by our on site chef. Remedial massage either in the treatment room (at the main house) or in the privacy of your own tent. For additional guests we can arrange an additional 3m glamping tent that fits x2 single or one double bed. Please contact us to discuss your options.
Your hosts Camilla and Ryan can offer you a range of activities and delicacies during your stay. Camilla is a professional chef who has worked in Italy, the USA, and Australia, and can offer you fully catered meals and hamper options for day excursions based on fresh locally sourced produce. She is also a level six Massage New Zealand qualified myofacial/remedial massage therapist and can offer massage on site, either in the dedicated massage studio or at your accommodation. Ryan is a “semi-retired” paramedic and part time dog ranger who will sit with you on one of the various decks, tell tall tales, and assist in the consumption of alcoholic beverages (yours) and snacks (also yours).
The Golden Bay region is host to a wide range of activities and points of interest; the golden sands of Pohara beach are 20 minutes away, historic Collingwood 30 minutes, and Farewell Spit around an hour from the property. The Great Walks of the Heaphy and Able Tasman within an hours drive. The region is home to wineries and locally sourced eateries for foodies, and for the muso’s the Mussel Inn and Roots Bar have regular live artist appearances.
