Relaxed school holiday escapes in the Bay of Islands
Spending time away together as a family is about slowing down, exploring new places, and enjoying simple moments together. Treghan offers relaxed family accommodation in the Bay of Islands, with private, self-contained guesthouses surrounded by gardens and open lawns, just minutes from Kerikeri.
Located just minutes from Kerikeri and close to beaches, waterfalls, walks, and family-friendly activities, Treghan is an ideal base for a Bay of Islands family holiday.
We offer two ways for families to stay during the school holidays.
Family Play Stay – 2 or 3 Nights
Holiday fun for the whole whānau
Our Family Play Stay is perfect for a short school holiday break, with children under 10 staying free when you book a 2 or 3 night stay in one of our two-bedroom guesthouses. Treghan Lodge is a popular choice for school holiday accommodation in the Bay of Islands, with space for children to play and plenty of family-friendly activities nearby.
After days exploring waterfalls, feeding parrots, visiting glowworm caves, or cruising in the Bay of Islands, return to your own private guesthouse to relax, cook dinner, play games, and enjoy the firepit in the evenings.
