Nestled below the misty summit of Mount Moehau on New Zealand's remote bush clad Coromandel Peninsula lies pristine Tangiaro Valley.
This is a special place - take a deep breath, relax & unwind.
Tangiaro Kiwi Retreat is the brainchild of New Zealanders, Bruce and Anne Clegg, who purchased this land - approx 800 acres, in 2000. They were pleased to secure this extremely valuable piece of New Zealand flora and fauna, and the majority of the land has been protected by the Queen Elizabeth II National Trust.
We maintain a peaceful, low impact presence on the land with our well-appointed stylish bush lodges.
Relax in the tranquility & understated opulence of our self-catering, unique, stylish bush lodges. Bathe in natural un-chlorinated rain water, recline on the deck with a good book or curl up by the fire.
Fully self contained with well equipped kitchen, laundry, open plan lounge and dining. A cozy gas log fire adds to the ambiance. Each lodge can accommodate up to 4 friends or family.
Be sure to bring all your supplies of food and drink with you as it is a long way to the nearest shop.

Getting there:
Take your time and enjoy an interesting 3.5 hour drive by car from Auckland, taking in the broad Hauraki plains to Thames. Here is the best time for purchasing your food and drink supplies. Enjoy the picturesque Thames Coast road journey to Coromandel Town and from there you drive north to Colville, which has an old style general store for any last minute items. Three kilometers north of Colville you turn right and take the Port Charles Rd, then 20mins on gravel road through the remote bush and farmland of the upper Coromandel Peninsula brings you to Tangiaro Kiwi Retreat.
