About The Flying Fox, Retreat Accommodation on the Whanganui River
We stayed only one night here while bikers among us completed the M2S trail and I was very impressed. I would love to go back in summer to see the garden. But in early autumn it was lovely too and we stayed in the winter house with a super wood burner. 5 stars for the character-filled accommodation, wonderful food (including a packed lunch) and to Kelly and Jane. We'll be back.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My husband and I came to stay In December for our wedding anniversary.
We made our booking the week we wanted to come and wanted to do the paddling on the riverf option. We wanted our stay to be hassle free so went for the catered meals.
We both enjoyed our stay. The facilities were amazing and it was very restful. Andrew was particularly impressed by the stereo in our cottage - apparently it was a good quality one.
Paddling on the river was interesting - we had to work together to get back to the flying fox and we did it!
The meals were delicious and the serving sizes were generous. Our hosts were friendly and i would recommend going here if you want to get away from it all.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ What a great little discovery on the paddle down the Whanganui.
Look out for the signs on the true right of the river.
Tents sights, cabins and tents available for accommodation.
From the road a flying fox delivers you across the river.
A little micro climate of fruit trees and so many avo's.
A great little (and cheap) shop with beer wine and supplies.
A stay here is a MUST!!!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ WOW, a wonderful amazing unique stay. I surprised my partner with the canoe package, it was absolutely perfect gift for his birthday. Kelly and Jane are excellent hosts, who made our stay an awesome experience. Great hospitality, delicious food and wonderful sleeps in the Gypsy Cart. Plus the canoeing down the Whanganui River was relaxing, enjoyable and it was wonderful to see the river and the surrounding land at a leisurely pace. We are looking forward to our next stay.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Was an excellent getaway experience for our family. The canoeing was terrific and complimented the incredible feeling of isolation from the busy world. Accommodation was rustic but very comfortable. We really enjoyed playing the vinyl records on the player in our cabin lounge.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wow! After canoeing the river, and riding the Timber Trail we needed something nice :) The Flying Fox delivered that. Jane and Kelly run the perfect operation, both passionate about what the do, and more than happy to engage and share their knowledge of the local area.
Seriously, this place is a gem, it's remote and the trip over in the Flying fox is just crazy cool.
We ended up staying another night, it was that good :) Can't wait to come back.
