About this property
Westhay Stables - Paparoa Holiday Home
Surrounded by a rural paradise and offering the perfect blend of rustic and contemporary flair, this unique Paparoa holiday home even offers dedicated accommodation for your horses! Welcome to Westhay Stables!
Ideal for a romantic getaway or a horse riding retreat where you can bring your own horses with full stabling and paddocking available, this Northland accommodation will welcome you with warm country charm from the moment you walk in the door. An abundance of picture windows and glass doors fill the entire home with natural light.
Spend your time relaxing in the lodge-style living room, the heat pump keeping you at the perfect temperature while you get cosy on the leather couches to watch your favourite shows on the Smart TV. Fancy something a little different? Head into the second bedroom for a game of pool or two!
Open the bifold doors out onto the deck where relaxation is the order of the day. Treat yourself to a glass of wine and a cheeseboard prepared in the kitchenette, before firing up the BBQ for dinner and an evening around the fire pit under a starry sky.
Two spacious bedrooms comfortably accommodate up to five guests here at Westhay Stables. A generous bathroom with a large double shower and double vanity completes the set up for your stay.
Get out and explore the beautiful scenery here at Westhay Stables. There are picturesque waterfalls and walking tracks to be discovered, and you can even bring the dog along for the adventure too. Westhay Stables offers kennels for your furry family member to spend the night.
There's plenty of boat parking at the accommodation, and when you want to launch for a day of fishing on the water, the area's only all-weather and tide boat ramp is just a short drive away at Pahi on the Kaipara Harbour.
The small village of Paparoa is just a three minute drive from Westhay Stables where you can top up on supplies at the dairy, fill up the tank at the gas station, use the laundromat, or grab some delicious fish'n'chips at the local takeaways. There are also plenty of cafes for your morning coffee and the local pub is the perfect spot for a delicious evening meal.
For a rural escape with a taste of luxury, Westhay Stables awaits you! To access bedroom 2 from the living room and deck at this property you must either go through bedroom 1, or around the outside of the house.

Beautiful home. A relaxing place to be together. The bed for the fifth person is suitable for a child or petite adult however we made it work for us. Lovely hosts.
