How Do I Get There?

From Kerikeri and Waipapa:

Drive 8 km north of Waipapa on SH10. Take the right hand turn onto Takou Bay Road. Follow the road for 6.6 km right to the very end. Enter the property (660 Takou Bay Rd) through the green metal gates. Follow the drive through the gardens and towards the end you'll see buildings on your right and a wooden sign to 'River Cottage'. Follow this sign and drive down a narrow track past citrus trees on your left and at the bottom you'll reach a metal gate into a field. Go through the gate (please leave it as you find it). Follow the track through the field, up a small rise to a second gate. Again, drive through the metal gate and head diagonally across the second field to the right and you will see the Glamping site in front of you. Enter the Glamping site through the wooden gate. Please close it behind you. 

The keys are held in a key lock box, the code to which is issued on booking confirmation.
