Memorable getaway
We had the most amazing family getaway, there is so much to do that is suitable for everyone. We loved making pizzas in the outdoor pizza oven, there was a fire pit for toasting marshmallows, loads of outdoor games and board games. There is gorgeous walks nearby and the house was lovely and clean and perfect for accomodating 19 of us! We all totally recommend Thrive, it is magical and the views are stunning!

Great family stay!
Our family booked the house for our Pops 70th birthday celebration. It was a lovely weekend away together with with the rainy weather. The pizza oven was a hit! Had a very yummy lunch and a great way to cook altogether! We got down to the river a bit and the kids loved the tree fort! Great space and quiet!

Loved it
We had a fabulous weekend at Thrive with extended family at the end of April. There was something for everyone. The young grandkids loved the animals, the outdoor spaces and games. Their parents went running in the Tararuas, and all of us enjoyed crossing the swing bridge and a bush walk. The house catered for us all easily, it was great. Very clean and well equipped. The outdoor pizza oven was a favourite. Thanks for sharing your fantastic property. The owner was very helpful and communication prompt. Highly recommended.

Beautiful spot great for big groups
Thrive is an amazing place to stay especially for big groups, great facilities, house is beautiful, the short work & breath taking views by the river are what I loved. We had a Hens party there and we had the most amazing time. Ash the host was so amazing communicating all the way along, very responsive and helpful. Only thing I recommend Is REMEBER towels as it is BYO and I missed this detail mangers were great & promptly provided some for us. Thanks so much again Ash for having us all at your beautiful spot. Cheers

A lovely hideaway
We had bad weather during our stay but the house is cosy and warm. There's plenty of room for everyone to have their own space, and lots of activities and games provided. The grounds are lovely to explore, even in the rain.

Girls Trip Away
A group of ladies planned a night away for Martinborough Fair and even though it was cancelled due to Covid we still went. This property was awesome. So much room everyone had their own space if they wanted it. Was quite a way out from anywhere but if you knew that you could be well prepared. It was really relaxing.

A piece of paradise.
This Wairarapa spot is magic. It has everything from books, outdoor games, bonfires and a great river to swim in. All within a stones throw from the house. This was our second stay and was as enjoyable as the first.
