WHARE KURA - Two Interconnecting Guest-Wings at the Old Aratapu School House
WHARE KURA
2 x interconnecting Guest-Wings (both fully self-contained)
[Sleeps up to 17]
Spacious (approx 250sqm) spread over two Guest-Wings - ideal for small to large Groups, and extended multi-generational Families.
"Cheap & Cheerful" pre-renovation Guest-Wing accommodating 2-14 guests.
Plus
"Elegant & opulent" post-renovation Guest-Wing accommodation 1-3 guests.
which gives one vast space(!) including two kitchen-dining-living areas.
LARGER PRE-RENOVATION "OLD" GUEST-WING
Decor is dated and quirky - and NOT ideal for any guest requiring impeccable presentation - it is too old and dated to be imaculate.
> Roomy ground-floor kitchen-dining-lounge-conservatory-terrace area
> Huge upstairs main Dprm Bedroom with Queen bed, 2 x Double-Single bunk-beds, and 2 x Single-Single bunk-beds
> Small attic bedroom up half a flight of stairs from the main Dorm Bedroom, with 2 x Single Beds (that can be pushed together to be made up as a makeshift SuperKing bed).
> Ground floor Bathroom with shower, washing-machine & tumble-dryer - and separate toilet.
Optional interconnecting door can be unlocked between the two guest-wings on the ground floor.
SMALLER POST-RENOVATION "NEW" GUEST-WING
Beautifully renovated to a high standard of lavish feeling of opulence.
> Elegant downstairs open-plan Kitchen-Dining-Lounge-Office (which has a connecting door into the other guest-wing).
> Downstairs Bathroom with toilet, shower, washing-machine & dryer.
> Gorgeous upstairs loft mezzanine bedroom, with Queen Bed, and Sofa-Bed (large single / small double - not suitable for a tall adult).
SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY:
Because we can't link the two individual guest-wing calendar availability to this double listing, reservations are always by request - but we will promptly reply to say whether both wings are available. :)
MASSIVE SPACE
This creates a truly sizeable combined space for up to 17 for short stays.
(Bearing in mind there are only two bathrooms and two showers, it is better suited for up to about 10 guests for longer stays.)
LOCATION:
> 1-min drive to Diary in Te Kopuru
> 5-min drive to Dargaville
> 10-min drive to Glinks Gully Beach, and local Countdown supermarket
> 15-min drive to Baylys Beach
> 30-min drive to Kai Iwi Lakes
> 1-Hour drive to Tane Mahuta in Waipoua Forest
Generous free parking available (the property has a large concreted parking area)
BEDDING CONFIGURATION:
Bookings for the first 8 guests are based on sharing the 4 x Queen/Double Beds.
[If any of the first 8 guests don't wish to share a bed, Extra Beds are available at one of cost of $40/Bed per stay]

Thank you for booking five guests to stay one night in the two large self-contained interconnecting Guest-Wings apartments at WHARE KURA 150-yr-old Aratapu School House (able to accommodate up to nearly 20 guests) so likely loads of room for ya'll. 😊
We do hope your brief stay was fab.

Beautiful and convenient
We enjoyed our stay here at the Old school house. The old wing does have its own charm but it’s quite old smelling and squeaky compared to the new wing, which is very nicely renovated. The old wing could do with some renovation to eradicate the worn out carpet smell and hinge sounds when you walk upstairs. Otherwise it’s a good stay place for large groups and very close to Dargaville restaurants and supermarket. Would highly recommend staying here when around. Hosts were very easy to communicate with and everything was very well organised

We are glad you enjoyed your stay at this truly unique property of NZ heritage. We politely point out we do clearly describe the Two Wings as one being "Cheap & Cheerful pre-renovation - and not ideal for anyone fussy" and the other wing as "Elegant & Opulent - renovated to a high standard" because this HUGE historic property is a current work-in-progress - so yes, your comment is correct that one of the two wings is still to be renovated. No-one has commented before that the unrenovated wing is "old smelling" - but we're grateful you could recognize the property's beauty, charm and convenience - as we thoroughly agree. Thank you again for booking to stay at the 150-yr-old WHARE KURA Aratapu School House!
