Corporate retreat
A HUGE thank you to you and the team from all of us - our stay was delightful and we thoroughly enjoyed the venue - it's been one of the best we've stayed in. It's a stunning setting and we did get out to explore between our work sessions. Fabulous watching all the wildlife too.
The venue itself was perfect - great spaces to work, socialise, cook and rest. You have one of the best kitchens for equipment! The bedrooms were cosy and beds exceptionally comfortable.
We do like to change our retreat venues but I'm sure we'll be back as it suited our needs so well.

Wedding
We had a great time and think the venue was great so I will post something when I get some time.
The help from you and Megan was fantastic. I didn’t expect it, and you just fitted in, so it wasn’t awkward. Thank you. -

Corporate experience
Our business hired this house to retreat and strategise. The spacious downstairs area was perfect for our day to day activities and upstairs was ideal for relaxing, and eating. Everyone found it refreshing, spacious and comfortable, and rejuvenating in the quiet, tranquil setting.

Thanks so much for being a pleasure to deal with. The location was perfect... and the weather played ball for a magical steam off the lake shot in the early morning!

Hu’s is such a beautiful, tranquil venue. It’s one of my favourite venues to photograph at in Auckland!
There is a purpose-built 6x6 dock that sits on the water with an arch and scenic forest backdrop. When you step into the paddock where the dock is situated, you will immediately feel relaxed in this tranquil spot.

Team building
We reserved this property as accommodation for our team that travelled in for our Christmas Dinner. We spent the afternoon drinking wine out on the deck and discussing how much each one of us would love to have a property like the HUS Art farm. It's perfect! Big, awesome stable doors that open up to let the light in downstairs. Huge tall vaulted ceilings with open beams. A huge amazing yard with a pond with two big resident ducks. A deck that made us almost miss our dinner reservation as we lost track of time! I would rent it, I would buy it, I love it!

This place is to die for! So special getting to watch the sun go down over the forest and listen to the birds chirping in the morning. The house is a dream and I can't wait to come back 🙂

Me and my now Husband got married at The HUs November 2023 and it’s was the best experience ever. The staff and team were so lovely and accommodating. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and very versatile. The package options are very well priced and offers options for all budgets. Highly highly recommend! Thank you Hus team ☺️

50th Birthday
We had my husband's 50th at HUs and it was such a perfect venue! We were able to have the party downstairs in the banquet room and then sleep our out-of-town guests upstairs at the end of the night. We are absolutely in love with the property! We've used HUs twice. First for a work function for 15 of us and now a for a 50th bash for about 35. It was absolutely perfect for both.

Wedding
This place truly left not only my husband and I, but our entire whānau mesmerised. The flexibility that you are able to utilise with the resources and space available is beyond helpful! This includes the central piece - the setting (that is if you are going for a wedding!) We were able to stay the night before and after the wedding (including the night of), and this was so perfect!! With ample space and good cost (even moreso when split between the family) it worked magic!!
