🌊 Why We Invite People Living in New Zealand to Experience Our Coastal Farm Near Kerikeri

Hello and welcome — we are Driftwood Seaside Escapes, a 120-acre private coastal farmĀ on New Zealand’s beautiful North Island.

Over the past few months, we’ve noticed something special:More and more Chinese guests living, studying, or working in AucklandĀ have chosen to come here for a quiet getaway. Many of them didn’t originally plan a ā€œholidayā€ — they simply needed somewhere peaceful to breathe, think, and reset.

And each time, we hear similar stories.


🌱 What Our Chinese Guests Shared With Us

Although everyone comes from different backgrounds, many guests told us they feel:

  • A little worried about English communication

  • Overwhelmed by the fast-paced lifestyle in the city

  • Social circles mostly within the Chinese community

  • Curious to see the ā€œreal New Zealand,ā€ but unsure where to start

Yet after spending time here, every single guestĀ told us things like:

ā€œHere, I finally feel like I can breathe again.ā€ā€œI didn’t have to worry about my English — this place feels safe.ā€ā€œEven traveling alone, I wasn’t scared at all.ā€ā€œWhether alone or with family, we all felt very relaxed.ā€

These moments made us realise something important:

This peaceful bay might be a small sanctuary for many people — a place to slow down and feel at ease.


šŸ¤ A Place With No Pressure, No Expectations

At Driftwood, everything is simple.

There’s no social pressure, no complicated interactions, no need to ā€œperformā€ or speak perfect English.

As your Kiwi farm hosts, we love chatting with guests — especially those who want to practise English in a relaxed, friendly environment.

But if you’re the quiet or introverted type, and prefer to enjoy your own space, that’s perfectly welcome too.You can come here, unwind, and simply be yourself.

🌾 What You Can Experience Here

Here on our coastal farm, you can:

  • 🌊 Watch the oceanĀ and listen to the wind from your room

  • šŸŽ Try horse riding or ATV — beginner-friendly

  • 🌿 Lie on the grassĀ and let your mind slow down

  • šŸ³ Cook a mealĀ you enjoy in your own time

  • ✨ See a sky full of starsĀ at night

  • šŸ„ Walk the farm tracksĀ and maybe encounter wild kiwi birds

  • šŸƒ Give yourself a momentĀ to breathe and reset

Whether you’re traveling solo, with a friend, or with family, the farm offers an environment of calm, freedom, and nature.
