A hillside home nestled in nature

This beautiful home is nestled on over 20 acres of pristine native bush bordering Kahurangi National Park. Enjoy the private walking tracks throughout the property, encounter the birdlife, and explore the astounding natural beauty of Golden Bay on horseback.


Be surrounded by a vast swathe of virgin rainforest and awe-inspiring mountains stretching across more than 450,000 hectares, or almost the entire northwest corner of the South Island. The views encompass the sweeping arch of Farewell Spit, the bright blue waters of Tasman Bay and the tree-clad hills. Take your bike for a ride, flyfish a pristine river for trout, fossick for gold or simply sit by the fire and relax.

The Hillside Home features two bedrooms; one with a king-size bed and the other three single beds, as well as a private bathroom. Curl up on the sofa in the living room and prepare your meals in the kitchen. The Treetop Suite adds another bedroom with a king-size bed and a second bathroom. The home wouldn’t be complete without a deck overlooking the landscape. WiFi is available.
