Our NZ visit took us most unexpectedly to Great Barrier, where Carol picked us up at Tryphena beach. Only then we dicovered where we were so lucky to have come to! Wonderful hosts, beautiful room with the best view, lovely tea, every detail so thoughtfully arranged. We felt very spoiled, all through the day and evening including great company, five... More

A fantastic "getaway" with wonderful hosts, namely Trevor and Carol. A new piece of NZ for us Mainlanders to explore. On top of that, great accommodation in a very comfortable bedroom/lounge, huge bathroom (complete with bidet!) great views. Met at the airport by Trevor who drove us to the door, via a spectacular driveway which is definitely 4WD only, and... More

It's amazing how transformed we both felt after just 2 nights at Earthsong.I can't imagine what Carol & Trevor could have improved on. From organising the appropriate rental vehicle to providing us with local knowledge, it set us up to just enjoy our stay and leave any stress back on the mainland. The thoughtful touches like fresh flowers from their... More

We really just showed up and... More

When we ventured out on our first day, it was a short drive (by our 4WD hired from GBI Rent-A-Car) to the calm beaches on the island's West Coast, Stonewall Store and Wild Rose... More
