About this property

Whakapirau, Kaipara. 2 minutes walk to the beach

Our home away from home, or 'the Green house' as it is known locally and named for quiet obvious reasons, features an open plan kitchen, dining and lounge, 3 generous sized bedrooms which can sleep up to 7 people.
Two large outdoor deck areas and a side lawn with an outdoor fire and seating area.
The front deck which is off the bedrooms enjoys the morning sun and the rear deck looks onto the ocean where you can enjoy the ever changing tidal view and a sunset each evening. A Peaceful, remote rural setting with stunning expansive views over the water.

Flounder can be caught off the beach at night and mullet, kahawai, snapper off the wharf or boat. Scallops and oysters can also be harvested when in season.

A quick 12min drive will get you to Maungaturoto if in need of supplies. Visit the cafes for a bit of treat & support the local community, or stock up before you check in & enjoy getting away from it all.

Linen is not included.
The Bach must be left as it was found, clean and tidy.
All Rubbish must be removed from the property.
