Welcome to Heartland Eco Retreat. This Far North holiday retreat accommodation is set in a tranquil glade within the Herekino Forest. Surrounded by fresh water and native bush, it’s the ultimate place to enjoy complete peace, privacy and serenity. Soak under the light of the Milky Way in the earth cement hot tub, stoke the outdoor fireplace, devour crispy woodfired pizzas, straight from the pizza oven and sunbathe on the white-sand beach beside the pond. Heartland is a cluster of four buildings: a main house (1 double bed, 1 single bed, 1 detached bathroom), a guest house (1 double bed, 1 single bed, 1 ensuite bathroom) and 2 cabins (each with 1 double bed and a shared bathroom). The main house features an earth cement hot tub, wood fired pizza oven, and full size kitchen complete with a gas stove/oven and a gas fridge. The buildings at Heartland are rustic and environmentally focused, made largely of earth cement and other local materials. Each building enjoys a view of the heart-shaped pond, fed by a mountain spring. The property is off grid, with power supplied by a small solar system. Lighting and USB charge ports are available. There is no wifi, but the property receives two to three bars of cell/mobile phone signal from all data suppliers.
