A little slice of heaven

Beautiful property with luxurious bed and bathroom. Views were incredible and Karen and Darryl were such lovely hosts. Quiet and peaceful location although well placed for exploring the Bay of Islands. I cannot rate this property enough. It was one of the best places I have stayed.

About the host

Hosted by Karen & Daryl

Your hosts Daryl and Karen relocated to Northland to be closer to family and enjoy a quieter lifestyle than their previous lives as a cabinetmaker and police officer allowed.
They were delighted when they bought their amazing property and realised it was such a special spot that it should be shared. So they set about planning and creating an idyllic self-contained retreat.
Skylark Lodge has just been completed (to their exacting standards) and is now ready for you to enjoy.
