About this property

Comfortable 1950s house with lots of original features and large garden .
Walk across the road to the beautiful regional park and golf course.
The beaches are tidal but great for swimming when the tide is high, the west coast beaches are close by.
There is a boat ramp at the end of the street for easy acess to the wider harbour.
This is a small settlement bordered by DOC land and the regional park, very relaxing and quiet, great for families and people wanting quiet time, not suitable for parties or loud music.

Great retro spot

A group of us stayed here for a golfing trip at the local golf course, it was ideal. Loved the retro feel to the place and the location couldn't have been better. Communication was absolutely top notch. Thanks Kerrie!

Cute house/Quiet location

Such a beautifully set out home away from home. Lovely mid century decor, like stepping back in time. Gorgeous garden and backyard, we felt so comfortable there. The beds were super comfortable, I will definitely be coming back here.

Was unaware of the beauty in Awhitu. Well worth the drive. Would easily book again.

A timeless, comfortable home in a must see location. Wish we’d booked for longer!

Peaceful getaway

Kerrie was a tremendous host who went over and above to look after us. The property was just as described and we felt at home during our stay. The various fruit trees were such a treat.
