Hidden in sub tropical gardens, along the banks of the Takou River, and surrounded by 150 acres of our beautiful pasture and native bush, welcome to your very own romantic hideaway just a few minutes walk from the stunning and secluded Takou River. The perfect space to relax, reconnect, refresh and rejuvenate.
Takou Cottage is one of two identical adjoining cottages and comes with its own separate and unique Balinese style Summer House hidden in a few minutes walk through the gardens (first photo) complete with your own private and romantic outdoor claw foot bath perched on the deck - perfect for romantic stargazing and relaxing.
Indulge in alfresco claw foot baths under endless starlit skies; wake to bird song and sunlight filtering through the curtains; wander down to the river through hidden paths and subtropical gardens to watch the fish jumping and birds wading as the sun rises over the water; discover hidden glow worms and swimming holes as you explore our 150 acres of organic pasture, riverfront and native bush; borrow a canoe from the Boathouse and paddle along the pristine Takou River to discover the stunning sandy beaches at Takou Bay; fish, swim, kayak and explore, or simply bask in the bliss of doing absolutely nothing.
A separate Riverside Hot Tub and massages are also available to book as optional extras (pre-booking and fees apply) - enquire when booking.
Rediscover the beauty of time spent away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and reconnect in our gorgeous cosy and romantic cottage at Takou River.

Love travelling for work and pleasure; solo, with family and friends. Explored many countries and finally settled in this stunning part of New Zealand to raise our family and share our beautiful 150 acre organic farm bordered by the beautiful and unspoilt Takou River leading to Takou Bay. We love to help people switch off from the outside world and reconnect with each other and the stunning natural environment around us.
