The Friends of Randell Cottage are delighted to announce their first New Zealand literary tour, a trip to Northland in March 2026, accompanied by Dame Fiona Kidman.

Over 5 days (15–19 March), you will be taken to the hidden heart of literary Northland and be immersed in history, culture, and scenic beauty, from arrival in Whangarei, through Waipū, the Hokianga, Kerikeri, and Russell. You will visit historical landmarks and meet local writers along the way.

There are only limited places available for this tour, so be quick.  You can book your trip with the travel agent directly through this link.

And watch this space: we are planning a Christchurch tour for June 2026, a lovely mid-winter getaway.
