Email us on [email protected] for all bookings
$350 per night
There are several private campsites to choose from, each one set among the farmland and bush-clad hills that shelter behind the huge sand dunes of West Auckland’s Bethells Beach.
The dramatic dunes, wild black-sand beach, fresh water lake and nearby bush walks and waterfalls have been the location of many iconic New Zealand films - and make this spot an ultimate getaway destination.
The canvas tent, designed by owner Jim Wheeler, was inspired by the luxury safari tents of Botswana as well as the Maori whare. Its heavy-duty canvas walls pull back like theatre curtains to reveal two intimate rooms, and the floor is made from recycled
Campers can also order food hampers, stocked with fresh bread, local meat and other larder provisions.
Over the sand dunes towards the beach, the Bethells Café (another enterprise of Jim and his wife Anna) is open in the weekends for excellent coffee and delicious eats.
