About this property
Barrier Headquarters main house. Unobstructed 270 degree views white sandy beach
Has amazing, unobstructed North-facing 270 degree views over Medlands beach, bay and mountains beyond. Just a few minutes walk to spectacular Medlands beach via road or a bush track. The entire house is eco friendly with drinkable rain catchment water, solar panels providing all electrical power and solar water collector for hot water.
The kitchen has a large fridge freezer with gas stove and hobs, and a massive concert island bar.
SpaceX Star link satellite dish for ultra fast internet onsite.
Pedestrian access via foot bridge (from camp ground) across stream and then an eight minute walk to the house. Vehicle access to house requires crossing of the Oruawharo tidal stream at low tide!!! in your 4WD vehicle. My onsite manager will arrange a meet and greet at the foot bridge to exchange house keys, show you correct operation of the home and use their car to transport your luggage to the house on arrival and departure.
All meals are self-catered therefore if you want specialty items it is suggested you bring these with you to the island although there are shops and cafes located at Claris, Tryphena and Port Fitzroy if you have your own transport.
Barrier is an amazing destination with world-class surfing, fishing and diving on your doorstep. The southern end of Medlands beach is suitable for boat launching.
Laundry facilities are located at Claris adjacent to the general store.
Mount Hobson summit, Kaitoke natural hot springs and historic kauri dams are worth the walk.
Please note: For groups of 5 or less, the main house is available on its own which you can view through the listing #45210
Special conditions:
No pets allowed at all. Smoking only outside.
Not to be used as mass gathering for big groups and parties.
Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$75.00 per stay); Linen (Required, NZ$75.00 per stay); Meet and greet including Transport from Creek to house (NZ$60.00 per stay);
