Waitomo Caves Cottage | Rock Retreat Bed and Breakfast Eco Retreat

1 Bedroom Cottage in Waitomo Caves, Te Kuiti

Rock Retreat is a perfect place to get away from it all.It is ideal and popular with families,honeymoon couples,artists,musicians and writers.Great for reconnecting with yourself and your loved ones to enjoy well needed conversations that we often don't make time for in our busy lives. Curl up with a book by the log fire in winter or in the hammock on the balcony in summer.
Experience the peace and tranquility whilst absorbing stunning mountain and limestone views of the central North Island and our wild west coast hill country.
We have the best of both worlds. Peace and tranquility, yet only a short drive to Waitomo Caves village and Marokopa beach. We are minutes from the action, Caving, Black Water Rafting, Abseiling, Climbing, Bouldering, Surfing, Fishing, Walking, Bike riding, Kayaking & Ziplining.

Continental breakfast provided in cottage.Barbecue available for guests own use.
