Comfortable North Piha family beach-house

In a prime spot over the road from Piha's dramatic surf beach, at the quieter north end, our beach-house started life 30 years ago, with architect brief: 'simple kiwi bach'.
We've improved and expanded it over the years, with our family, into a roomy, comfortable home-away-from-home, with large sunny decks and wonderful indoor/outdoor living, most mod-cons, yet still retaining some of the 'bachy' feel that we wanted.
We love our special place and our guests seem to agree, many coming back year after year.

Don't expect 5-star luxury, but instead enjoy a comfortable, clean & functional home with just about everything you want and need, including our recently renovated kitchen, new heat pump, fibre internet and smart TV.

We have a separate spacious sunny Studio (with en-suite bathroom) outside above the garage, ideal for a separate living/play area for older or younger family members. Or could be used, as I have done, as an office during lock-downs !
Our decks all around mean you can relax in the perfect sunny (or shady) spot, chill in the hammock, or spot tuis & kererus.

Our quiet North Piha location is worlds away from the south Piha summer crowds, sheltered by our pohutukawas from the west coast winds, spray and roar of the surf. We have some limited surf views downstairs, but prime spot is upstairs in the master bedroom, even from your pillow.

Enjoy the surf & beach straight across the road, year round bush walks, and hunkering down with wine, games and books around the fire in winter!

Easy access (2-3 mins walk) to North Piha Surf Club patrolled area for safe swimming.
Wonderful bush and spectacular cliff-top walks are close by - either into the bush up the Marawhara stream, or winding up Whites Track to the top of the cliffs above the house, and back down past Whites Beach.
Meals available locally at the Aryeh Restaurant, (check times), and dinners some evenings either at the Piha RSA, Piha Surf Club (South Piha) or Piha Bowling Club.

Special conditions:
NO PARTIES, WEDDINGS or other social gatherings please.
