About the host
Your host
We are a relaxed friendly couple - having moved to the beautiful Kaiteriteri area from Christchurch we are enjoying our new lifestyle - lots of outdoors work on our property maintaining and improving the gardens and grounds - sometime for fishing in the bay and lots of sunshine is really suiting us. We welcome guests to come and share our lovely property , swimming pool and ammenities and enjoy all the region has to offer.
Why they chose this property
Tapu bay retreat - Kereru cottage is so ideally located - we are just 1 km to the bustling golden sands of Kaitertieri and the access point to the Able Tasman National park with all its beautiful walking tracks, beaches, kayaking etc,
For the mountain bikers or those on the great taste trail we have an access point to the Kaitertieri maintain bike park ( part of the great taste trail) directly across the road from our driveway- so you can bike right too our door.
There is a private walking track for direct beach access to Tapu Bay - great for long walks in the evening if the tide is out- or just 5 minutes walk down to Stephen's bay which is a safe swimming beach in all tides - an excellent place to chill at the beach for the day.
