Listing Details

Surrounding Area

River Valley is an adventure lodge situated in a stunningly beautiful location beside the Rangitikei River on the Central North Island of New Zealand. It is one of the original homes of New Zealand Rafting, with a Class 5 section finishing outside the front door, and a fun family rafting section starting at the same place. River Valley Stables, the base for a range of NZ Horse Treks, perfectly compliments the other outdoor adventures on offer.

The expertise, knowledge and insights accumulated since 1982 over three generations of guides, will ensure that there is just the right adventure for you.

River Valley is not all about adventure however. With the addition of the River Valley Spa, some indulgence in the way of massge and yoga is also on the cards.

River Valley is unique in this combination of family, multi generations, location, and great things to see and do.

Accommodations

Accommodation facilities at River Valley lie within stunning scenary, green clad hills, the tree covered ranges, and the magnificent river canyons. Lodging Options vary from luxurious riverside guest rooms with private facilities to budget accommodation for adventure seeking backpackers The lodge in general has a rustic cabin style.

Rooms/Suites

Enjoy a high standard of comfort after your day of adventure! Our newest addition to accommodation options at River Valley are guest rooms with private bathrooms. These rooms, situated either in the gardens or by the river, are comfortable and stylish.Each room features it's own unique decor.

Each bathroom is tiled in a own distinctive pattern reflecting the local environment. All bathrooms have under floor heating. Each room has a king size bed tea and coffee making facilities.Two of these rooms have an extra single bed meaning the room can also be used a treble.

We also have a family size ensuite room, perfect for families of up to six!All our guest rooms with private bathrooms (ensuited), are within our wireless hotspot range.We are in an area that does not have cellphone coverage, ensuring a strong dose of peace and quiet.

Amenities

Restaurant:At River Valley Lodge we major in traditional country style cooking. This means mostly roast meals, but occasionally casseroles at night, with a mix of fresh seasonal vegetables. Entrees are normally soups, fresh salads, or selections of local cheeses and spreads. Dinner is set menu, and served at a fixed time.

Over the summer BBQs are themed based around fresh salads from the Lodge gardens and locally sourced meat.

Our cooks certainly know how to prepare extremely delicious desserts. Make sure to check out the dessert menu board, and prepare to indulge.

The Fulcrum Pit Bar:Some great stories get told here. After a hard days adventuring, or an even harder one relaxing, this is the place to settle down for a couple of "quiet" ones. An extensive range of beers, wines and spirits are carried. Check the "Shooter Board" for daily specials.

River Valley Spa:Our spa pool overlooks the river, set amongst native beech trees. This could be the perfect place to start. Spa pools unlike many of the other River Valley Spa services are all about leisure and relaxation.

Alternatively you could let tension melt away in our JUMBO Scandanavian sauna. This wood fired sauna is the traditional deal. With room for up to 6 people and a wood fired stove, this is just the place to sweat out a few toxins while socialising with friends or family. Very much a social event.

For more information on traditional saunas, click here.For the ultimate detox you could choose the Far infra-red Sauna, medically approved approach to more efficient sauna. For more information on infra-red Saunas, click here.

Facilities are available for smaller groups up to 14 for conference or retreat purposes. Conference or retreat facilities are available from early May to mid October. Our meeting room is situated in a beautiful setting overlooking the river at the water’s edge.

If your group has specialist requirements, please contact us so we can put a package together that meets your specific needs. To break up your sessions consider one of the activities that we have on offer. These can range from a simple game of golf, to a Grade 5 rafting trip, to an interpretive bush walk. These activities can be structured to get a Team Building benefit from them.

Internet facilities are available if required.
