Anniversary escapes
Whether it is your first anniversary or a significant milestone, an anniversary is a good reason to step away from everyday life and spend some proper time together.
At Treghan, you have your own private guesthouse and the freedom to celebrate at your own pace. Start slowly with breakfast, spend the day exploring the Bay of Islands, linger over a vineyard lunch, take a cruise among the islands or simply enjoy the gardens and having nowhere else you need to be.
If you married in the Bay of Islands, returning to the region can also be a lovely way to revisit favourite places, discover some new ones and celebrate another year together.
Birthdays & special occasions
Some birthdays deserve more than dinner out. A few days away gives you time to turn a milestone birthday or special occasion into a proper celebration.
Come as a couple, or bring family or friends. With three separate private guesthouses, you can stay together at Treghan while still having your own space to retreat to.
We can help with restaurant recommendations and reservations, local experiences and special touches for your guesthouse, leaving you to enjoy the occasion and the people you are celebrating with.
Planning a proposal?
The Bay of Islands offers some beautiful places to ask a very important question, and we would be delighted to help you plan the occasion.
You might choose somewhere quiet in the gardens, a favourite spot overlooking the water, a vineyard or somewhere discovered while exploring the Bay. We can help with ideas and arrange thoughtful touches such as Champagne, flowers or something special waiting in your guesthouse afterwards.
And, of course, your plans will remain completely confidential.
Celebrating your honeymoon?
If the celebration is your honeymoon, we have created something especially for the two of you.
Our three-night Honeymoon Escape combines your private luxury guesthouse stay with French Champagne, a generous welcome platter, breakfast provisions, Makana chocolates, special honeymoon touches and a leisurely three-course vineyard lunch for two with a bottle of wine.
Stay for three nights or make Treghan part of a longer honeymoon, giving yourselves time to relax and discover more of the Bay of Islands and Northland together.
Celebrate, then stay a little longer
A special occasion is even better when you have time to enjoy it. Stay a little longer and there is time for the celebration itself as well as slow mornings, favourite places and perhaps a few new discoveries around the Bay of Islands.
And if the best plan for one of those days is no plan at all, your private guesthouse and the gardens are a very good place to spend it.
