Coolcation in the Winterless North

Where fresh air, slower days, and golden light set the pace.

A Coolcation is your chance to embrace the beauty of the quieter seasons — where crisp air gives way to warm sunshine, golden light lingers longer, and unhurried moments take centre stage.

As the Bay of Islands shifts toward spring, Treghan offers the perfect place to recharge — with slow breakfasts, mulled wine on the deck, garden walks, and time to do as much (or as little) as you like.

With boutique retreats, curated seasonal packages, and a warm Northland welcome, Treghan is the perfect place to take your Coolcation.
