Relax in this bright and sunny family friendly home with natural outdoor living.
Enjoy a holiday in our Permaculture Home & Garden. We have established edible gardens including veges, fruit, medicinal herbs, a composting system, composting toilet, outdoor firepit to enjoy and an acrobatic silk hanging from a tree.
Step inside this tranquil home to a welcoming earthy feel, large living area with comfortable couches, books to read, games to play, lovely open plan kitchen and dining, warm and dry bedrooms with very comfortable beds and green views from every room.
Great outdoor living spaces include a sunny deck with views of established trees, a sheltered courtyard, a large garden with ample space to kick a ball around, or enjoy the flowerbeds, bees, kereru and tui which abound in the tall central Gingko tree providing summer shade. Kids will love the swing & trampoline. Sit around the firepit at night.
This family friendly home is well suited to young children, with multiple outdoor living spaces, toys, children's books & children's board games.
In winter the house is warm and dry with a wood fire in the lounge, plenty of dry firewood, a night store heater to heat the bedrooms and HRV in the ceiling.
Free broadband wifi.
Most of our furnishings are upcycled, with an art deco / retro / rustic vibe. Our kitchen & bathroom are dated, they don't look like modern hotel bathrooms, however they're spotlessly clean & fully equipped. Our linen is 100% cotton, feather duvets, woolen blankets which are freshly laundered and air dryed between guests. If you're looking for a 5 star hotel, this might not be the place for you. This is a family home with an alternative, laid back, boho vibe.
