You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Rimu Hut: Luxury riverside and off-grid

Our Rimu Hut is not your average off-grid cabin. Powered by a robust 4kW solar system, it offers all the comforts of home—no need to worry about conserving energy here. The eco-friendly hut is fully serviced with solar power, fresh rainwater, and luxurious amenities, including a fully equipped kitchen and bathroom.

Inside the Hut: The ground floor features a plush queen bed, while the mezzanine holds a cosy double bed. Both are dressed in soft, 1000-thread-count cotton sheets, with a variety of feather pillows for ultimate comfort. Extra blankets are available, perfect for chilly evenings or for snuggling up outside in the Adirondack chairs on the deck as you stargaze.

The bathroom is equipped with a full flushing toilet and a shower with great water pressure. You'll also find premium Ashley & Co. toiletries, including body wash, shampoo, and conditioner, leaving you refreshed and pampered.

Outdoor Bliss: One of the highlights is the wood-fired outdoor bath, an ideal spot to unwind under the stars in complete privacy.

While we encourage our guests to unplug and fully enjoy the serene surroundings, we understand the need to stay connected. For those looking to work remotely or just check in with the world, we provide Starlink satellite internet.

Family-Friendly with Caution: Families are welcome, but please note that due to the proximity to the river and the natural slopes around the property, we recommend keeping a close eye on little ones to ensure their safety. If you need a cot for an infant, just let us know, and we’ll set it up for you.

Access to the Hut: The Rimu Hut is located within the heart of Tamata Estate, accessible via a scenic farm track. We recommend a 4WD for the journey, but if you don’t have one, no worries—we provide one! Simply park your vehicle on the farm, and you can transfer to our farm car for a short 5-10 minute drive to the hut.

Once you arrive, you’ll find everything you need for a peaceful, off-grid stay, blending rustic charm with modern comforts.

Come and experience the natural beauty and calm of Tamata Estate—where your only task is to relax and reconnect.
