Escape the hectic pace of urban living and enjoy a relaxing break at Fern Ridge- a secluded private wilderness retreat in the Maungataniwha Ranges just waiting for you.
Self-catering for 2 - 4 guests at any one time, the intimate location is ideal for a special romantic getaway for couples.

Fully self-sufficient, Fern Ridge Hideaway is environmentally friendly, utilising off-the-grid power generated by hydro electricity from an on-site waterfall.

Sunsets at Fern Ridge are quite simply breath-taking, you are first to see the sunrise and last to see the sun down on the horizon.

As the evening closes and you're relaxing in the outside bath on the deck with a wine, you may spot glow worms flickering among the foliage, or hear the kiwi bird calling.
Enjoy a nature tramp to a waterfall and swimming hole on the property.

Amazing place with an amazing view. The perfect rainy getaway. Spotlessly clean, very well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, and roaring hot outdoor bath. Most cars should be fine on the driveway in the dry, but might want something a bit bigger for those slopes when wet. Already can wait to go back.

So glad we stumbled across this little gem on Homeaway.com. Wish we could of stayed longer than two nights, So relaxing and quiet. Went for a walk down to the little waterfall, Followed all the markers it was a fun little adventure. We will definitely be back when we return to NZ in the future. Great Job guys the lodge is perfection and id exactly what you describe it as and more.

The driveway was definitely a bit of a challenge when we first arrived as we didn't know what to expect going up! but it was well signed for the way up!
