Barn vacation rentals in Te Ika-a-Māui / North Island

If you want a truly peaceful, rejuvenating escape in a beautiful serene location - highly recommend Susans place. Its rustuc, kitchy, full of personality and a great respite from city life. Susan is accomodating, friendly and lets you enjoy the pond and scenery in peace. Added bonus was no cell service at the Barn so we could switch off from the world - however Wifi at Susans house was accessible whenever we wanted (which wasnt that often) and we loved being off the grid for our 3 days. Thank you Susan and Sasha it was such a delight! x

One of our favorite places we stayed in our 2 week long New Zealand trip. The location is magical. Lots of room for 2 people. Lived meeting the doggo, chickens and looking over the vineyards. Thanks Andrew!

This location is wonderful. My family love that farm. My kids enjoyed tranporin. Blueberry ice cream was so tasty. And Sue is very kind and friendly,

Beautiful barn style, accommodates three families easily all with their own bathroom! The line is very luxurious and beds comfy Communication was quick and efficient at very late notice. The place did have a few cobwebs and dust from the road but I think that comes hand and hand with being out in the countryside. Stunning garden outlook to sit and have your morning coffee. We throughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend to other families or larger groups with all amenities supplied and a short drive to Te Arai beach. Thank you!

How an airbnb should be. Anna & Brian have created such a welcoming, peaceful oasis with all of the personal touches that make staying here so wonderful. A short drive from Auckland and you feel you're in the middle of nowhere (in the best way). A bottle of wine, homemade cake & bread, breakfast provisions (so many eggs we couldn't finish them all) topped off with a well kept tennis court, pool & spa - in a gorgeous apartment-like setting, we couldn't have asked for more. A great place to stay.

Thank you Jen and Dewi for hosting us, we really enjoyed our stay at the barn. It was an experience like no other. I really appreciate the nature and natural fibers around the barn, it really brought a sense of calm to me - this is very rare for someone living in the city and just what I need! Star gazing at night was absolutely phenomenal, I could do this all day (or night). The stay was very memorable and I will remember it for years to come :)

Nick was a great host. He was extremely friendly and very responsive to a last minute booking. The place was perfect - clean, private, well equipped and nicely furnished. The location was great, right in the outskirts of town. I'd definitely stay there again and recommend it to others!

We had a lovely weekend at this beautiful airbnb. Perfectly located for exploring Martinbrough. The property was clean, comfy and beautifully decorated. We loved sitting outside in the sun reading our books and staring at the grape vines! It was so lovely to be somewhere so quiet. Thanks for having us.

We had a fantastic and relaxing stay at Dee's place, all the amenities were provided and the place itself is bigger and more spacious than what appears in the photos. Although I didn't meet Dee, she was very responsive and accommodating, setting up an extra bed for the last minute addition to our group. We appreciated the quiet and bucolic setting and we would absolutely stay here again!

An amazing place, great decor. Peaceful setting. Great amnesties. Responsive and friendly host. Really appreciated the touches like passion fruit and apples.

Highly recommend The Cowshed Cottage! Trish and Al are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet and the place is cozy, cute, clean, and spacious. We were greeted with homemade sourdough bread, homemade brownies, and several homemade jams. Trish has thought of everything with the included amenities, including a spacious bathroom and two separate lounging areas. The fireplace warms up the place quickly and is well-stocked with wood, and the Cottage is a 10 - 30-minute drive to most things. We were there during a few rainy days; however, it was nice since we had a large Cottage to relax during the rain. Would have enjoyed staying longer if possible, would absolutely stay again, and would highly recommend to everyone.

We had an amazing weekend getaway at Andrew’s place. It had great views and we loved that it was a very private property. We thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor amenities such as the spa pool, firepit the BBQ. The host was also very responsive and we had no issues during our stay. Thank you Andrew

Such a cozy place to come home to after a tiring day. And with the bad weather we had on our first few days, the kids loved staying indoors as it felt like home. Everything was working well and the host made sure the house is clean and tidy and that our big group is well covered. Highly recommended!

Perfect location for exploring the area. We loved staying at Deb’s place

Beautiful, modern, clean property, perfect for our requirements. Lots of space for children to play outside. And with having the extra accomodation as well as the main house, we had plenty of options that worked well with our Family combinations.

Such a wonderful stay. Only negative is that we couldn’t stay longer! If you’re looking for a home stay away from home, this is your place! We felt like we had checked into an old friend’s place. It’s a lovely home on a gorgeous setting. It ended up raining but Jen was so clever and gave us some alternative ideas which were amazingly fun (and we would never have found them if it hadn’t been for her suggestion). This is a hidden gem for sure!!

We had the most wonderful birthday stay at Natalie and Bruce’s place, the space was incredible, everything was spotless, and we had so much fun playing pool and using the hot tub. Would definitely recommend ☺️

The home is spacious but you do not feel disconnected. Beautiful surroundings and well equipt kitchen. The indoor outdoor flow gave as an additional seating area for dinners etc. Fabulous facilities could not think of anything else that would be needed there. Would highly recommend The Red Barn.

We had another fantastic stay at this accommodation and we look forward to our next stay in the near future.

Woolshed stay exactly what we had anticipated and has all needs and close to get out fishing thanks again
