About the host
Hosted by Sarah, Searle
Shane and Sarah are fifth generation of Te Kopuru families. As such have a full understanding of the local area, particularly the beach. You will see many references to the river, the harbour and the beach in and around our property. Shane is literally the fishing legend in Te Kopuru and is happy to do charters on the harbour weather permitting. The knowledge of the history and families in this area is unequalled.
Why they chose this property
The outlook from both houses (number 32 as well) is peaceful and beautiful particularly first thing in the morning when the mist is rising and the river is beautifully reflective and still
What makes this property unique
The outlook, the history, the spa, everything is made for a large family and this is our whanau home and we hope you enjoy it as our guests
