“It was perfect for four generations of family to have a get together in this lovely echo home.”

I love how peaceful it was, for generations of family together, was perfect with all the different sleeping areas.(great linen.) We had the fire going which made the whole house very cosy Thank you

“Would come back and stay again, was very beautiful”

My son loved the pond. Was very calm and quiet

“A lovely place for those looking for friendly eco environment to stay”

Should be better if put a sign at the letter box , so others will more easy to find the right way through.

“Absolutely loved this place and didn't want to leave... would love to return but my husband said not without a ute n”

The scenery was amazing and tranquil. Beautiful place to relax. So much space to spend time together as well as take some quiet time for yourself. Rustic and simple. Kids loved the pond. Main whare is cozy. Lots of different spaces for meals. Great location to explore the far North from. Diesel the dog was so gentle with my toddler who was so excited to see him. Love that there were 3 bathrooms and toilets.

Loved the location, the views and the accomodation.

Location was nice and private.

“amazing stay with whānau”

Loved how we had the run of whole property loved how we could fit our large family there wif all the rooms and kids loved the swimming pond and spa it kept them busy all day everyday we loved everything about it and we will be returning

This is our third year we've had our yearly family holiday here. We love Heartland Eco Retreat!! Hamish is an awesome host, attentive yet leaves you to it. We love being immersed in the native forest, it's soooo peaceful and quiet. Absolutely awesome place to relax and unwind. We love being disconnected from the busy world, no t.vs, no wifi, just solar power no other people it ticks all the boxes for our family. The earthen homes are cool during the day and warm in the evenings. The hot tub is always awesome to enjoy the night sky. We always look forward to coming back here to this beautiful space.

“If you lead a busy lifestyle and need to wind down, book in here now, you won't be disappointed!!”

The serenity of the property, as soon as you arrive, you instantly feel at peace, absolutely beautiful, if I didn't have other plans I would have stayed longer!!

“Potentially perfect if tweaked”

Loved the quiet peaceful atmosphere, the open fire, huge table that was perfect for family meals, ample furniture and immaculategrounds. Grateful to Hamish for his help with the oven and fire lighting skills, and for lending Diesel.

“Great place to chill off-grid with chums and from which to explore Ninety Mile Beach & Cape Reinga”

Fabulous off-grid location... We'd stayed before so knew how good it was. Loved having the whole place to ourselves... although it's great to share with friends. The red part cement of the building's interior is so unusual, quirky and atmospheric. Wonderful, friendly dog... we called him Vincent as he'd lost part of one ear.

“Disconnect from the busy life and surround yourself in nature”

We love everything about the Heartland Eco Retreat. Immersed in nature, utter peace and quiet and Hamish is an awesome host. Secluded and private and has everything you need to be comfortable. No wifi, no t.v allows you to disconnect from the outside world and be present in all moments. We've stayed here a few times now and we're already looking to book again. Thank you for sharing your slice of paradise with us, we can't wait to come again.

Loved the quiet, sitting in front of the fire place reading. Beautiful location. Loved Diesel the dog, he was always keen for a little love and a treat.

“Absolutely Tranquil, relaxing & the best place to celebrate our dad’s 70th birthday.”

I didn’t like the property I LOVED the property & everything about it. Quiet, relaxing, gorgeous surroundings I could go on & on about this property.

“Peaceful, Quiet and off grid ... What more could you want”

We have stayed here before and I absolutely love it. Off grid and out of the hustle and bustle of a busy town. The home is homely feeling and cute and quirky. Hamish is an awesome host. It rained most of the time so we made good use of the fire, pizza oven and the hot tub. Definitely one of the best places to get off your phone and be present in the moment. My family travelled from Auckland and they absolutely loved every minute of our stay here. Check in was easy, it's peaceful and private.

The setting of the accommodation was very nice and peaceful. A great place to be and relax.
