Mairenui Rural Retreat, hotel in Ruahine

Situated near Mangaweka, Mairenui Rural Retreat features a garden, barbecue, and sun terrace. Free WiFi is available and free private parking is available on site.

We had the Villa to ourselves and it was my dream house full of old world comfort and charm. The fire was on when we arrived and it was so homely. The setting was in a magical place, a real rural retreat with stunning scenery. We lit the fire in the lounge room on our second day and spent an idyllic day reading and chatting by the fire. The clawfoot bath was wonderful, the breakfast scrumptious and the hosts David and Sue were most welcoming and interesting to talk to. We truly loved it.

Historic Shearers Quarters, hotel in Ruahine

Historic Shearers Quarters is set in Ruahine. This farm stay offers free private parking and private check-in and check-out.

This is a historic gem. Beautifully restored with period features intact. It was peaceful and the dawn chorus of the magpies was beautiful. I recommend the books about the history of the family and the property. The bathroom with a big deep enamel bath was bliss.

    This is a very rural and not very touristed area of New Zealand. If you want very fresh air, and very quiet surroundings with no sound except birdsong, this is the place. Views and scenery are very attractive without being spectacular. Make sure you fill your car with petrol and pack snacks. Some of the rural towns are very small and you won't necessarily find a cafe or a petrol station. Having said that, if you spot a cafe, it will probably be pretty good. I cannot get over how cafes in the middle of nowhere in New Zealand still have great coffee and delicious food.

    A very relaxing place so quiet huge garden NO TV Plenty of room for a group. The Villa is like going back in time. A warm place but has wood fire that warms the whole house!! Would stay a week next time. Plenty of space for my dog to roam safely!!!

    Love this place.

    Love this place. Lots of friendly animals to pet and look at, a maze and play equipment to keep the kids entertained. The cafe has great breakfast. We were traveling in an electric car and they let us use one of the caravan plugs to charge our car. The cabins are super cute and cozy and warm.
