FALCONS VIEW: Spacious Studio with Breathtaking Views

Falcons View is nestled in the Ruahine Ranges. Private and elevated there are views of the rolling rural landscapes from every window.
The Studio is a low voltage off-grid system. There is a Queen Bed, Self-contained kitchenette, wood stove, gas cooker, and solar lighting. It still gets reception for most mobile internet technology. With access to native bush walks, hiking trails, and local wetlands, there is plenty to see while you are here, but take a break; genuinely rest. Unplug and slow down, that's what Falcons View is for.
A significant highlight is the OPTIONAL outside Wood Fired Hot tub that can be requested for $150 hire.

Such a lovely place to stay! Kitchen utensils all stocked and two gas cookers to cook with. Bed and couch super comfortable, and lots of firewood outside for when we ran out. ATV ride up and down was a great part of the experience and all our luggage fit! Wouldn’t bring too many perishables if staying longer than three days as even the best chilly bin can’t keep milk cold for that long!

The property was exactly what we wanted, it was peaceful and in the depths of nature. The views each night of the sunset or stars where amazing and the area including the property has many hidden pieces for you to explore. Highly recommend

A perfect getaway in the countryside!

I recently had the most amazing experience staying at the flacons view studio in Rangiwahia, and I cannot recommend it enough! If you're looking for a peaceful and rejuvenating escape from the hustle and bustle of city life, this is the perfect place for you.

Spectacular Falcons View

A beautiful bush fringe location. Awesome views with a glimpse of Mount Egmont. A quiet and relaxing off the grid weekend experience. We would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a hideaway vacation.

The most relaxing getaway imaginable

Everything from the communication to the amenities was perfect. Orelle and Hamish are great hosts that go above and beyond, we had the most relaxing weekend of our lives at this stunning property and would come back in a heartbeat. Little luxuries like scented candles really elevated it to the next level, the only thing that could possibly improve this property is a sharp knife in the kitchen but that didn't damper our stay at all.

Refreshing bush hideaway

Well appointed self-contained cottage nooked into the Ruahine Range bush. Extremely private with a terrific view. We crashed for a good week literally under a starstudded sky. Kereru kept us company during the day and moreporks at night. We slept, read, ate ( and ate) and lapped up the local walks, river swims and bush walks. We grilled on the bbq and fired up the ingenius homebuilt spa. We both had had an over busy year and this was a wonderful place to recharge and get set for the year to come. Couldn't recommend highly enough. Attentive and flexible hosts. You won't be disappointed! ps loads of places to visit off the beaten track.

Lovely space

Lovely space with beautiful views. Weather was rather rainy but luckily had the hot tub to warm up. Host was very nice generously helped carry bags up to the property. Definitely needs a few more kitchen tools however - there was one small knife and no bread knife or BBQ tools. Had to make do with plastic tools which is obviously not ideal on hot metal. Would've also been great to have fly screens on the kitchen window so bugs don't come in when it's open for cooking ventilation. Wonderful overall :)

This place is a hidden gem. One of the best location and accommodation we've stayed so far. Amazing view of the sunset across the horizon. It was also raining throughout our stay and being in the hot tub while raining is just so relaxing. We'll definitely be back here soon.

If you want to be remote from the world and just enjoy being together in a simple but very well presented cabin then this is for you. We played cards, read books, loved the wood fire and cooked up some good food. The walking track out back was a bonus. While out walking I spotted some deer grazing in a nearby paddock. The spa pool option which we paid for surprised me. Arriving on a very cold afternoon to find that we had to spend two hours stoking the fire to warm the water was a surprise. I'm not sure what we paid for but we never used it. It would have been great if it had been warmed up on arrival.
