Indoors there is TV, a guitar to play, or tackle a game of Chess. There are games for the children and toys for the little ones.
When you feel like exploring it's only 8 Minutes drive to the famous black sands of Muriwai Beach, popular for it's wonderful surf, Golf Club and Gannet Colony.
Take a walk along the west coast walkway or enjoy a horse-trek along the vast spetacular Coastline. There is also 4wheel drive access up one end of the beach, permit required.
Fishing from the rocks or exploring the cave is popular when the tide and conditions are right.

Family Wedding
Our daughter was getting married at a venue near by. This was the perfect place to house family members for a long weekend. Hazel was very easy to deal with, very accommodating in every way. She came over soon after our arrival to introduce herself which was lovely. We were very impressed that after 7 or 8 showers all in a row, there was still hot water. Thank you Hazel for your lovely home.

Great location for winery wedding
Hazel went out of her way to make us welcome. Her property is well set up for families with 3 bedrooms and one nursery. Set in the country, the property is very quiet and looks out on paddocks. We had a wedding at a nearby vineyard and this property was an ideal location. Great base to explore the region.
