Wholeness River Retreat is a precious piece of paradise in a very accessible location on the Thames Coast, Aotearoa NZ (90 minutes drive from Auckland).
Our Vision
We’re co-creating a sanctuary where Nature is the healer. This river retreat is perfect for seekers of the scientifically proven benefits of time in Nature. We consciously combine traditional spiritual practices with the flow of our collective healing experience to create a harmonious environment. We are sustainable, organic as possible, developing biodynamic pastures and orchards. Ideally investors will be fluent in spiritual practice, ready & willing to participate in the dynamic unfoldment of a small retreat community.
Here’s a deeper dive into our vision.
Landscape
33 acres of mixed pasture, manuka regrowth and established native forest bordering the Coromandel Forest Park. Wetlands and waterfalls. A stunning river is adjacent to our boundary. Several internal spring fed streams are available to gravity feed water. DOC track passes along the boundary and deep into the Coromandel Ranges.
We are establishing organic orchards and small vegetable gardens, adding biodynamic preps as we go. Volcanic topsoil graces this area. The land is suitable for grazing – we have a few biodynamic house cows. Manuka forests provide ample food for beekeeping. Rongoa maori abounds.
Buildings
There is an existing 60m2 1960’s cottage, which we currently use as the main house for several small cabins. We have a “yoga room” where we practise healing modalities. There’s a workshop, a woodshed, a productive chicken garden, and a greenhouse underway.
Investment
$360k secures 20% of the freehold title and an offgrid homestead. Homestead is recently built in a sunny location with expansive views. One 30m2 building plus wraparound deck.
