Raglan Escape: Unique holiday home right in the heart of Raglan

Raglan Escape is perfect at any time of year for family holidays, that all important weekend with the girls - or just a couple looking for a quiet weekend. Soak to your hearts content in the generous size bathtub (the infinity hot water means you will not run out of water). The 3 bedrooms sleep up to 9 people:: 2 rooms with a Queen bed each and the large 'bunk room' contains a King bed, a single bed and a double. bed. All linens and towels supplied (including beach towels).

Recently renovated, (inside and out) Raglan Escape offers everything you need for an enjoyable and comfortable break whatever the weather. The super efficient log fire heats the whole house in the winter, and the indoor and outdoor flow to the large deck is just right for watching the beautiful Raglan sunset.

Owners live in a house on the same property, available for any assistance you may need. Please respect our lovely neighbours, no loud music or parties please.

Right in the heart of Raglan this unique bach is only one minute to cafes, shopping and the best coffee in New Zealand. plus only 3 minutes walk to the harbour beach. What more could you want.

Fully fenced section with carport and off street parking completes the offer at Raglan Retreat.

NOTE: There is no television at Raglan Escape, plenty of books to read for your relaxing stay though.

IMPORTANT: If you have an EV, the public charger is on Bow Street beside the Community Centre. Please do NOT charge from any of the outlets on the property as they are not designed for this purpose. Thank you

disappointing
Hello We enjoyed the house when we got there. YOur team did not advise us on the day or before the address of the property or how to access it. We were lucky that local people helped us to find the owners. They were delightlful and they let us into the property and gave us a key. The only other disappointment was there was no TV for watching. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay.

Beautifully presented home close to Raglan town
We had a lovely stay in this property with our two teenage children. Beautifully presented property with all the amenities you require for a relaxing break, the deck is amazing! Thoughtful touches by our hosts including milk in the fridge and lovely citrus from the trees on the property in the fruit bowl. Very short walk into Raglan for morning coffee and dinners out etc although the property also has all you need for cooking if you choose to stay in. Will definitely keep this property in mind for future trips to Raglan!

If I could give more stars I would. 10/10
This property is absolutely stunning and renovated to perfection. The outdoor living is a continuation of the warm and cozy inside. Its a 2 min walk to the township and wonderful coffee. Im very fussy when it comes to cleanliness often staying in hotels where there is always somthing not to standard. This property was faultless!! Linda and John were the perfect hosts, making sure we had everything we needed. They had loaded the fireplace with wood should we need it, fresh locally sourced fruit on the bench and were so lovely and welcoming. Dont think twice about booking this lovely home.

We loved our stay here. Couldn’t fault anything. Had all facilities needed for a comfortable stay. Even had some toys for the kids. So convenient for walking into town. Lovely fireplace to warm the place. John was lovely and greeted us on check in and was available if we needed anything. Will definitely want to stay here in the future. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Incredible place
This place is a dream. The large decking with table seating and lounge suite is just perfect for that morning breakfast coffee or late afternoon drink and nibbles. Beautiful decor throughout and very clean. Extremely well equipped kitchen making a stay for a large group easy. Just loved the finishing and thoughtful touches. Very short walk down the drive to the local shops and beach. Thoroughly recommend staying here. You wont be disappointed.
