The Glasshouse is a Luxurious Retreat for Two

“A romantic New Zealand retreat for two that feels every inch the private island without leaving dry land, The Glasshouse affords stunning coastal views from a little peninsula jutting into the Pacific Ocean,” Christine McCabe reports from Whangarei Heads for The Australian.

“Hidden away, two hours north of Auckland (30 minutes in a helicopter if you’re time-poor), the architecturally designed, one-bedroom house sits atop a rugged cliff, sheltered by venerable pohutukawa trees.

“Owned by a New Zealand expat returned from London who’s updated the interiors and tweaked the technology, this elegant retreat provides the perfect indoor-outdoor hideaway.

“Glass walls and a large deck with outdoor fireplace frame long ocean views and a total immersion in Kauri Mountain Point’s lush scenery. Even the bathroom can be opened onto the bush for an alfresco shower.”
