About the host
Hosted by James
I love good coffee, simple food, lime & soda, reading page turner thrillers, skiing steep deep powder, sailing fair winds & the sound of an air cooled 911. I’ve travelled widely and enjoy meeting new people from all walks of life and cultures.
Why they chose this property
Medland's beach is centrally located on the island. It’s a short drive to Tryphena or Claris and is a great base for accessing all the other island attractions.
Drive to the Bach or enjoy a ten minute walk along a gravel road with the last hundred meters up a steep hill. If driving you will need to cross the beach & ford a shallow tidal stream at mid to low tide, then drive 500 meters and up the hill. Vehicles can be parked at the Bach or beside the DOC camping ground. The stream is easily waded or use the pedestrian bridge located next to the car park area.

What makes this property unique
The entire island is off the grid and the Bach is on solar electricity and rain water. Fishing, surfing, walk to the hot springs, play gold, read a book or just do nothing. At night, gaze in wonder at the heavens above.
