About this property
Raglan Farmhouse Made for Groups, Amazing Sunsets from massive deck, Spa & Pool
Raglan Farmhouse is situated on 2 Acres atop a little hill at the entrance to Raglan, with stunning sunsets out over the estuary and Mt Karioi
The place has been specifically set up for groups of 12 to 18 people, to relax, cook and spend time together But absolutely NO LOUD PARTIES ! Small family gatherings are ok but all noise needs to be inside doors closed by 9pm, we are on the edge of town and suburbia has consumed the surrounding farmland !
We have 2 King beds & 5 Queen beds and 5 Single beds across 8 different rooms in a number of dwellings. There are a few different outdoor settings to enjoy, from the large Deck & BBQ area with amazing sunset views, to the front lawn with Spa & Cold pool, or the lower garden sheltered amongst the old fruit trees, next to our extensive Vegie Garden. There is also plenty of off street parking and enough space to turn a boat or park a camper.
The old farmhouse itself has a Master room with a King bed and a second bedroom with Queen bed, adjacent to 2 full bathrooms plus a sun-room with 2 single beds coming off the Separate lounge, that opens into a Full Kitchen, Dinning & family room.
Right next to the house and sharing a massive outdoor living area is a converted barn with another open plan Kitchen, dinning & lounge space. This fully insulated barn has a log burner, 65" TV with sky sport & massive 8 person couch. This space acts as the central hub for large groups with stunning views out over the estuary, and 2 more bathrooms off the back.
Next two the barn and within close proximity to the bathrooms is the XL white caravan & the Classic Kiwi sleep-out. The XL Caravan is a favorite of many and contains a queen bed at one end, and U shaped lounge area at the other end, a perfect area for small kids to sleep. The Classic Kiwi As Sleep out is great for bigger families or as a room to put all the kids in together, there is a very comfortable super King bed and 2 full size single beds plus a couple of roll a way's but it can be set up in a couple of different configurations depending on your requirements
Descend into the lower garden of old fruit trees, and tucked away you will find the Wooden Cabin and Green Caravan, a favorite for couples of all ages esp those without kids who want their own space.
Come enjoy our uninterrupted views that catches all day sun and overlooks the harbor and the setting sun next Mt Karioi.
Raglan Farmhouse is all about relaxation and mindfulness there is a 2 night minimum stay in place all year round and in Summer and public Holidays this increases to 3 to 5 nights.

This stay is 10/10
This place exceeded our expectations. The view, the property, the manager, the rooms, the spa, the pool, everything was amazing. We loved the fact that we werent cramped, we had space to be together and we also had space to be alone. We absolutely loved our stay, highly recommend Te Whare and am absolutely rebooking! Thank you Chris for sharing your piece of paradise.

Great funky place for a group of 14
We enjoyed the big barn house with a huge table for meals for 14 and all the caravans and cabins located around the property that offered privacy. The spa was a tear after surfing and the kids loved the plunge pool and karaoke with disco lights!

New favourite place to stay in NZ
I can't rate this place highly enough! We had a group of friends/family ranging from 4 to 47 staying here to celebrate my husbands birthday and this place couldn't be more perfect. The place is extremely well set up for a big group, the ammenities were great, kitchen is well set up, and beds and bedding were SO comfortable. Super easy 950m walk to the main shops. Sitting in the spa and looking at the stars was a highlight for us all, we've never seen stars like it! The kooky art throughout was an added bonus. We'll definitely be staying here time and time again.
