About the host
Hosted by Ron
Rachael and Ron love the rugged beauty of the West Coast of New Zealand. So much so that they have made the investment to move there in 2023 and build a new home on a stunning clifftop location.
Rachael has always had a desire to become a host and so we decided to offer up our character cabin for short term accommodation. We lived in the cabin for a year whilst building and made it a little home full of soul, and a special retreat.
Rachael is also a celebrant who is passionate about ceremony and ritual. Not only does she perform weddings, funerals and baby naming ceremonies, but she also offers Cacao Ceremonies, seasonal ceremonies and more..
Ron work in IT and has his own website development and management business, as well as working for a local game development company.

Why they chose this property
We love the immersion in nature and rugged beauty of the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand.
What makes this property unique
There are no other properties at Cape Foulwind that provide the unique view we have of the ocean, the Steeples rocks and the stunning cliffs. We also have no immediate neighbours, which allows us to enjoy privacy as well as a sense of being secluded without being far from amenities. We also have famous walking and cylcing tracks literally outside our gate, making it easy to enjoy the beach, surf, fishing, walking, without having to drive anywhere.
