The host Adrian is amazing, friendly and informative in places to see and do. The Carriage House is well equipped with everything for a self catering holiday, plus washing machine and dryer. Adrian showed us all his vintage cars and horse carriages. Lions Brewery harnesses marked with emblem and the original wagon has pride of place.. I loved the Gypsy van❤️ Adrian has his first car on hand with others- White Ghost Rolls Royce sparkling like new . It was a great honour to view these cars and hear the stories from Adrian.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Karetu holiday package cost?
You'll find cheap prices from AU$702 on Expedia for your Karetu break. However, a range of factors like the hotel choice, length of stay and season will influence how much your holiday to Karetu costs.
What are the cheapest months to go to Karetu?
If you're hoping to snag a cheap Karetu holiday package, consider travelling in May, June and July. You're likely to find better rates on accommodation and flights during these quieter months — perfect for a budget-friendly getaway.
How many days is enough for Karetu?
Typically, a handful of days is enough to explore the top attractions during your Karetu holiday. But if you'd like to have more time to kick back or take day tours, consider extending your trip.
How to find the best Karetu package deals?
Landing a cheap Karetu package deal is a cinch with Expedia. Once you've entered your travel dates and destination under our "Packages" tab, set your maximum budget, apply a few filters and browse what's available. You can personalise your search by "Area," "Amenities," "Property type" and more. Sort the results by "Price: low to high" to discover the most wallet-friendly Karetu package deals. Want a simple trick to get the biggest savings? Have some flexibility with your departure dates and consider going away on a weekday, when prices are often lower.
Is it cheaper to book a Karetu holiday as a package?
Expedia holiday packages are designed to make your money go further. Bundle your flight, hotel and car rental into one great-value price and enjoy significant savings. You'll generally land a better deal than booking each component individually. And you'll still get the freedom to create a tailored Karetu holiday by choosing your favourite type of stay, airline and car class.
