About the host

Hosted by Di Maxwell

Host profile image
We are a farming couple who brought this amazing house at Castlepoint in May 2016, we hoped to spend time there with our grandchildren and fishing, we are still very busy with the land and my husbands Agricultural spray business so decided to share this lovely house for other families to enjoy as well until such time as we can use it more ourselves. we get a huge amount of pleasure from the fantastic comments and return visits from our guests.

Why they chose this property

This 14 year old house just lends itself to 2 to 3 families staying at once with 4 large bedrooms and a separate bunk area plus the 100 sqm of open plan living its an amazing family house with a great feel. Just as nice in the winter with double glazed full size windows on 3 sides of the house and a fire upstairs its awesome watching the sea on a stormy day from the cosy top floor.

What makes this property unique

Great walks, visit the iconic lighthouse, the reef or sandhills. DOC walking track to Castle Rock
