Coolcation in the Winterless North
Where slower days, fresh air, and quiet comfort set the pace.
A Coolcation is a chance to embrace the quieter seasons in the Bay of Islands – crisp mornings, golden afternoon light, peaceful gardens, and time to properly slow down.
At Treghan Lodge, guests stay in completely private, self-contained garden guesthouses tucked into peaceful surroundings just minutes from Kerikeri. It’s a quieter and more restorative way to experience Northland during the cooler months.
Spend your days exploring coastal walks, vineyards, galleries, local markets and long lunches, before returning to your own private retreat to unwind beside the firepit or linger over a slow breakfast.
Coolcation Season: 1 June – 30 September 2026
Your Coolcation Includes:
Luxury accommodation in a private garden guesthouse
Gourmet breakfast provisions (homemade muesli, preserves, breads, eggs, and more)
A bottle of Northland red wine on arrival
Handmade Makana chocolates
Thoughtful seasonal touches including local wine, marshmallows for the firepit, and relaxed evenings under the stars.
Complimentary Wi-Fi and onsite parking

Stunning property with every little detail taken care of to provide a very relaxing and enjoyable stay. Owners are awesome and take care to ensure an awesome holiday.
The cottages are beautifully appointed with amazing views, and waking up to the sounds of birdlife and enjoying a coffee on the deck is a hard experience to beat.
The host and hostess were fabulous. Very attentive, incredible communicator, friendly, very helpful. The accommodations were the best I have stayed (and I travel a lot!) would love to stay there again. Everything was perfection.
The exceptionally warm welcome to a well appointed, beautifully furnished and extremely comfortable retreat. super provisions for breakfast and more. Everything has been meticulously thought through to make for a very relaxing stay. Love the thoughtful eco friendly products to use in both the kitchen and bathrooms.
