About this cabin rental

Gold Nugget Hut is a beautiful little upcycled, off-grid (non-powered) cabin perfect for a couple wanting a private glamping experience.

* THE SPACE: Gold Nugget Hut is a gorgeous little space created with all sorts of upcycled and salvaged pieces collected over the years by us. We've incorporated hardwood power poles, reclaimed wood panelling, antique enamel cookware and collectables within the site. The hut itself started off life as an industrial office in Greymouth. We relocated it, relined and clad it then added all the special touches. Almost everything is either upcycled/repurposed and 2nd hand.

* The hut is perfect for a couple, with cosy indoor sleeping and a small seating area. Outside is an outdoor, covered kitchen and seating area - a great way to connect with the stunning Hokitika countryside.

* Outside, outdoor furniture and a campfire area are the perfect places to take in the farm vibe and stargaze.

* KITCHEN + COOKING: Gold Nugget Hut is self-catering, just bring your own food and drink, and cook meals using the facilities provided in your covered, outdoor kitchen. You'll find all the cutlery, crockery, pots and pans that you'll need. A chilly bin is provided to keep food and drinks cool. You can cook on the campfire as well, weather permitting.

*OPTIONAL S'MORES PLATTER: We offer a campfire night experience as an optional extra. Light a campfire, make marshmallow sticks for toasting your marshmallows to make s'mores. We provide a s'more platter with everything you need to make delicious s'mores any style you like.

*SLEEPING ARRANGEMENT: The hut has a queen bed with 100% cotton sheets, a feather duvet inner and extra blankets. Towels are also provided.

*POWER: Gold Nugget Hut is completely off-the-grid. There is a small power pack available to charge cell phones and other small devices.

The shower is heated via a gas califont and cooking facilities are run via LPG bottles. Lighting runs on solar power.

*HIGHLIGHTS: You are welcome to walk the farm and meet the many animals.

Bird lovers will enjoy the abundance of fantails, tui, kereru, ruru and weka in the bush surrounding the hut.

*There are a number of short walks through old gold mine workings nearby. It is a short drive to Hokitika Beach, the Hokitika Glow Worm Dell and the Hokitika Gorge. The incredible Pancake Rocks at Punakaiki is approximately 1hr 15mins drive.

* Staying at Gold Nugget Hut is like taking a step back in time. Hokitika was once a bustling goldmining town, and remnants of the gold workings in the surrounding area, are reminiscent of a time when Blue Spur was populated by thousands of gold prospectors. Gold Nugget Hut is a modern pioneer-style mix.

* The hut is simple, rustic and quintessentially 'West Coast'. It's the perfect place to take time out, rest and soak up the breathtaking scenery of this wonderfully wild part of New Zealand. The hut has solar lighting, is fully insulated and off grid.

Bring your marshmallows, sit by the fire and stargaze.

*LOCATION: The hut is 12 minutes' drive from Hokitika township. It is on an elevated site looking out over Blue Spur Farm and the surrounding area. Behind the hut is lush native bush full of birdlife. It is a very sunny sheltered, private spot.
