BENEFITS OF BOOKING WITH SLEEPING
LADY LODGINGS
By
renting a holiday house with Sleeping Lady Lodgings you are getting
more than just a fabulous place to stay. A short walk from your
accommodation will bring you to the 'Karioi
Lodge and Outdoor Centre' which is located on a 110
acre nature reserve at the foot of Mt Karioi. As a guest you'll
be able to enjoy many of the facilities here free of charge including
the flying fox (cable line swing), low ropes course, 1-2 hour bush
walk and sports barn. In the evening you can catch the stunning
West Coast sunset from the lookout at Inspiration Point, view hundreds
of glowworms or indulge in a Scandinavian style sauna. It's a great
experience for both kids and adults!
The
Karioi Lodge & Outdoor Centre is also home to the ‘
Raglan Surfing School ' providing surfing lessons and
surf equipment rental and ‘Surf
Dames' - a women's-only surfing retreat. Guests of
Sleeping Lady Lodgings are entitled to a lodge discount on surf
lessons and also surfboard and wetsuit hire.
