Romantic riverside escape for couples or small families
Sleeps 4-5 | 35m² studio-style cabin
Tucked into a bend of the peaceful Mangaotaki Stream, River Song Cabin is a beautifully crafted 35m² retreat ideal for couples or small families seeking seclusion, comfort, and connection. Surrounded by rolling hills and dramatic limestone cliffs, it’s the ultimate escape — any time of year, in any weather.
Inside, you’ll find a luxurious four-poster king bed, a cozy built-in sleeping nook with high ceiling and window (sleeps up to three extras in a double and single beds), and a spacious double indoor shower. Outside, soak in the double outdoor bath, swing from the tree swing, or play in the river with 2 kayaks and a sea biscuit.
Every inch of this cabin has been personally designed by us with our guests’ ultimate holidays in mind — a place where comfort, charm and nature come together. We’ve even created a 10-day curated adventure guide filled with the best things to see and do from here — most of which we’ve experienced ourselves and love to share.
If your timing doesn’t quite align, some guests choose to book the full stay and simply settle in at their own pace — arriving earlier, leaving later, and making the most of the time here.
Many guests arrive with big plans, but choose to stay put. It’s that kind of place — peaceful, magical, and hard to leave.
We want to make your holiday easy!
Our guests love the peace, tranquillity and attention to detail; There is a reason why Peter Jackson filmed The Hobbit here. It is truly magical!
