Charming and spacious holiday hideaway with pool

Max’s Place is an ideal summer holiday house for couples, families, extended families or groups of friends. Situated about two minutes by car from Parapara Beach, five minutes from the famous Mussel Inn at Onekaka and about 8 minutes from Tinky’s fish and chip bistro in Collingwood, it is the perfect spot from which to experience the numerous sights and activities Golden Bay has to offer; or simply to kick back and relax by the beautifully sheltered swimming pool.
The property is much-loved family holiday home set on a private, sunny and sheltered four hectares of trees and native bush. It sleeps up to 10 or so people depending on number of couples. For more than 30 years it has provided the owners’ extended family a gathering place for holidays full of fun, wonderful communal meals, adventures in the surrounding bush, relaxing sun-soaked hours by the sheltered swimming pool, entertaining friends from far and wide – or simply an amazing situation to down tools and soak up the native bird-song. It is clean, tidy, and lived-in with a welcoming sense of family and character.
The Homestead comprises the main living. Built in the late 1970s largely out of mudbrick from the property, it has been modernised in parts but remains a quintessential family holiday home -- comfortable, full of character and well-equipped. The Railway Carriage ("Parapara Station'') below the house and adjacent to the swimming pool provides ideal overflow for larger groups, or an escape for those seeking a little privacy or solitude. The property is approximately 10 acres and includes an orchard, a few paddocks, a couple of creeks, one bordered by extensive native plantings, and plantations of pine, macrocarpa and Tasmanian blackwood. When you are tired of the beach or exploring the sights, it's a relaxing and quiet base to return to. Over the years it has been a great holiday place for getting together with family and friends. The carriage is not suitable in the winter.
