Te Wepu Pod Retreats.

Is just the place.

Secluded luxury pod cabins in an idyllic spot in which you can stop, relax, read and breathe in the silence, Te Wepu is just the place.

Our Story.

The pods sites have been strategically positioned out of sight and sound from each other.

In just over an hour from Christchurch, you will find your perch above one of the most tranquil bays on Canterbury’s magnificent Banks Peninsula. Far from crowds, you’ll sink in to your own PRIVATE steaming wood-fired hot tub under an abundance of stars and, if you choose, you can even enjoy sumptuous local fare delivered to your door.Although you’ll be a 15-30 minute hike from the nearest road - in the midst of a working cattle farm - you’ll sleep on real beds in double-glazed, New Zealand-made pods; more solid than canvas, much more romantic than an ordinary hotel room. Te Wepu has a Gold Qualmark ranking, making Te Wepu one of the few luxury accommodation places in Canterbury.If you’re an adventurous soul – whether travelling in a small group, on an adventure for two or flying solo – and you want an idyllic spot in which to stop, relax, read and breathe in the silence, Te Wepu is just the place. Dotted throughout Te Wepu’s 30ha of working farmland and bush are three sleeping pod sites. Each site has two pods; a dedicated sleeping pod which sleeps two and each has a spectacular view of the Onawe Peninsula and French Farm Bay.Each one has its own private setting including wood fired hot tub (emptied, cleaned and refreshed after each guest), fire pit, an eco-friendly waterless (and odourless) Bioloo, camping facilities including a gas BBQ, and delicious fresh spring water. The other pod is your utility pod which includes a composting bio loo, changing area with towels and bathrobes for your hot tub experience.
