Its a tropical paradise set amongst beautiful trees, flowers and fauna with beautiful bird song from the native birds and the constant roar of the ocean waves in the background which lull me to sleep.
Its only 10-15 minutes drive to Raglan town with its bohemian vibe, local eateries, cafes and creative shops and I love being next to the Ocean, with sea views from the main house but also although more restricted in the studio flat you can see the sea and hear the roar of the waves day and night - the louder the better! The sound of the native birds is beautiful by day and at night we often hear the Morepork/Ruru owls. Its got its own microclimate and is mostly sheltered from the wind - it's a very private space hidden from the road.
