Discover the serene beauty of Totara Glen Farmhouse, an idyllic retreat offering peace and tranquility, all just a mere ten-minute journey from the bustling town and inviting beaches.

This charming farmhouse is cradled by lush farmlands, set against the spectacular backdrop of mountains, part of the Kahurangi National Park. These majestic peaks, frequently adorned with snow, create a breathtaking panorama.

Golden Bay is a haven for mountain biking enthusiasts, boasting an array of trails, alongside a dedicated road cycle track to the township.

Perfect Stay

Our four night stay was lovely. The house is located in a beautiful valley with mountains to each side. Cows and sheep graze in the fields around the house. Thoroughly bucolic. The kitchen supplied everything needed. Our bed was comfortable. A bouquet of freshly picked flowers greeted us upon arrival. The town of Tākaka is a short, scenic drive away, with a supermarket and restaurant options. Lovely beaches are nearby and most important to us, access to Abel Tasman Park. We very much look forward to returning!
