With two beautifully appointed ensuite rooms, a nourishing home-cooked breakfast, and warm local hospitality from your host Victoria, Ongarue Valley Retreat is the perfect base for adventurers, explorers, and those wanting to experience the spirit of the King Country in boutique comfort.

Rest. Ride. Repeat.
