Dreamlands Cottage + Woodfired Sauna…

Wake up surrounded by native bush, a peaceful valley at the base of the protected Waitākere Ranges.

Whether you’re sipping coffee on the deck, or simply soaking in the quiet, Dreamlands Cottage invites you to slow down and escape from the everyday hustle

The sun is getting low, casting a warm glow over the surrounding pastures. There is no one around. Just you and the horizon. Take a sip. Fire up the bbq. Enjoy dinner with the best view in the world.
