![]() ![]() As we’re in Raglan, one of the most famous surfing spots in the world, Solscape offers surfing lessons as well as the expected yoga. ![]() It’s a little on the expensive side, but it’s a place worth seeing. If you’re on a New Zealand campervan trip, I’d recommend booking one of the powered van sites here. The permaculture gardens and glorious sunflowers add to the relaxed atmosphere, and even though I can’t eat much of the food here due to an intolerance to veganism – note that I’m not trying to be a dick I am genuinely intolerant to most fruits, many vegetables, some nuts and all beans (including, of course, soy) – I would definitely come here again. The cabooses made from old railway carriages look awesome, as do the earth domes and the tipi forest. The composting toilets and solar showers are actually quite nice. The Conscious Kitchen overlooks a gorgeous bay. You get the idea.Īnd though we’ve all made a few too many chakras jokes since arriving, even I have to admit that I like it here. The café is called the Conscious Kitchen. It advertises itself as a ‘harmonious diversion from conventional forms and patterns’ and uses phrases such as ‘holistic wellness’ and ‘to nurture our connection with each other and the natural world’.

You’re free to do nothing but stare at the view.Īnd what a view Solscape has. You know that moment, when you feel totally in another world? Work doesn’t exist here. Other couples thinking they’re bonking quietly. Cicadas building to their perpetual crescendo. You know when your tent starts glowing with the light of dawn? And the sounds of nature gradually permeate your dreams? Cockerels cock-a-doodle-dooing. ![]()
