About this property

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 23]

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 2-19 guests.
Plus
"Elegant & opulent" post-renovation Guest-Wing accommodation 1-4 guests.

which gives one vast space(!) including two kitchen-dining-living areas.


LARGER PRE-RENOVATION GUEST-WING
Decor is dated and quirky - and not ideal for anyone fussy.
> Roomy old kitchen-dining-lounge-conservatory-terrace area with basic Sky TV box (which has a connecting door into the other guest-wing)
> Lounge that can sleep two on the settee
> Conservatory that can sleep three on couches
> Huge upstairs main bedroom with Queen bed, and 2 x Double-Single bunk-beds, plus space to add in a Double mattress and King-Single mattress on the floor
> Twin bedroom off the huge main bedroom with 2 x Single Beds, plus room to add in a King Single mattress.
> Bathroom with shower, washing-machine & tumble-dryer. Separate toilet.

SMALLER POST-RENOVATION 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).

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 SET-UP
This creates a truly sizeable combined space!!


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 $40/Bed per stay]

BOOKING UP TO 23 GUESTS:
The AirBNB system only facilitates for reservations up to 16 guests, so beyond that we need to create a Money Request in their system, for the Extra Guest cost of $27pp/night.
