Countryside and comfort in Matakana
Adventure in Matakana, Auckland, NZ
If you want to escape the city without sacrificing any of the comfort and convenience of home, The Green Tent is the perfect spot to unwind in style. Thoughtfully designed at every turn, this is true luxury glamping. Relax in the hugely spacious Green Tent, fitted out with games, books, and a TV for movie night. Cross the deck to find a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom, and outdoor tub. Enjoy a Nespresso coffee on the covered outdoor seating overlooking bucolic farmland, then get the BBQ & fire cranking at night for dinner and marshmallows under the stars. This site feels private while remaining close to Matakana Village - so you can easily explore the local Saturday market, cafes, and surrounding galleries, vineyards and regional parks.
The Green Tent has been designed in such a way that your only task is to decompress and enjoy the surrounds.

Browse a selection of delicious local food and drink at Matakana Markets, and watch the eels swimming in the nearby stream!
Wander the outdoor sculpture parks and marvel at the array of art on display, plus enjoy the indoor galleries as part of your ticket!
This beautiful regional park has undertaken a lot of work to become predator free to protect our native birds. With beautiful coasts and walks through bush tracks during the day, you can also explore at night for a chance to spot wild kiwi! Remember to park before 7pm (the gates close for entry at 7pm but you can leave anytime after), and bring your red-light torch to not disturb the wildlife!
Enjoy a beautiful brunch/lunch overlooking a kitchen garden near Omaha, and the al fresco seating on a sunny day.
Enjoy a coastal walk in the fine sand along Omaha beach, and a dip if you're brave!
