Riverslea Retreat, near to the Kapiti coast,  is a natural place for groups to meet, work and relax together.
 

Environmental Policy

We believe that we do not have a right to dominate and plunder this planet, and we recognize the natural rights of our eco-systems and the animals that live in it.

Our long-term goal is to make Riverslea a fully self sufficient and sustainable operation by partnering with the surrounding natural environment and caring for our ecosystems.

Our future and the future of our children are dependent on how we treat the earth. Let's protect the environment and if we can't leave it in a better condition at least let us not make it worse.
