Chalet Karaka is a private accommodation situated on the same land as the main house. Nestled amongst the native trees on the banks of the Rameka stream. Be lulled by the gentle trickle of the stream and native bird song. You can see Kereru and Tui visiting the nikaus and kowhai trees outside your bedroom window. The accommodation has been lovingly crafted using local and exotic timbers and tiles to create a unique and luxurious feeling of home.
