Te Kāinga Maunga | Spa, Sauna & Cosy Fireplace

Welcome to Te Kāinga Maunga, our two-storey mountain home on the edge of Blackheath. Four bedrooms, two cosy lounges—one for firelit chats and board games, the other for movie nights and kids’ retreats. A modern kitchen flows onto the back deck, where the BBQ, wood-fired pizza oven, private spa, sauna, and garden invite slow evenings under the sky. Just a short drive to Evans Lookout and the village, this is where mountain time begins.

Fantastic house in an excellent location. We were so impressed by the size, condition, cleanliness and equipment of the house. We all loved the hot tub and sauna, especially after the Grand Canyon walk. My eldest son spent a lot of time looking at the stars through the telescope. Excellent communication and responsiveness from our host. One of the best short-rental properties we've ever stayed in.

We had the most incredible stay at this beautiful mountain retreat! Five of us came for a girls’ weekend, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The property is beautiful —so cozy, warm, and clean. It truly had everything we needed and more.The beds were comfortable, and the sheets felt so luxurious, which made it even easier to relax and unwind. We especially loved all the thoughtful extra touches—the coffee machine with fresh beans ready to go, the chopped firewood for a cozy night in, and the record player with a great selection of records that added such a lovely atmosphere.The brand new spa and sauna are a wonderful touch set in a gorgeous garden, they made the whole experience feel like a private retreat. It was the perfect place to relax, recharge, and enjoy each other’s company.We had the most amazing, peaceful weekend in a great location and left feeling completely refreshed. We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a realxing getaway!

Great cosy cottage - loved the well eqipped kitched and tasteful firnishings! Fire was gorgeous. Has a truely enormous TV upstairs but we actually never turned it on preferring to chat in the downstairs lounge room near the fire - so unplanned digital detox an added bonus!
