About this house rental

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.

Lovely peaceful house with a beautiful outlook - this location and house are both perfect for a young family. Very cosy and warm. Only suggestion is that, considering the price, it would be great if towels and sheets were provided and a few more kitchen necessities for cooking. We will definitely be back though and the host was so lovely and helpful to deal with. Recommended :) Can’t wait to try the place in summer!!

The Green House was everything and more that my family and I could want of a rental house with close proximity to the beach, sensational views, and relaxing comfort. We were all very, very pleased with the decor, the ease of access, and sleeping arrangements to cater for our large family group. We will be back for sure.

From beginning to end it was hands down the best experience ...... from the first instance checking in the owner was welcoming and generous....... the property itself was everything we had hoped for and so much more... ... not just the vibe ( which was amazing ) but all the tiny touches that make a Bach a home away ( even for just a little while ) ...... the wairua ( spirit ) of whakapirau is one of peace and Aroha .... there are hidden gems waiting to be discovered....... from the poem painted on the side of the water tank down at the boat club by renowned poet Sam hunt .... to the sharing of freshly caught snapper down on the beach with locals to the glorious views that are 360 deg 24/7 ...... to the board games on offer , the comfortable sleeping arrangements and the feeling of being refreshed and revived ....... as the mokopuna said as he kissed the door goodbye...... we love you green house ❤️✌️👌�

Slice of kiwi paradise

Slice of kiwi paradise

Ditys bach is delightful. Fantastic location making the most of the views across the Harbour and just a short walk to the beach. The rope swing at the beach was a hit with the kids. We paddleboarded at high tide and explored around the wharf at low tide. The bach has everything you need for a weekend away. The fire kept us toasty warm. Good sized bedrooms. Well equipped kitchen. Magical. We’ll be back 😉

Beautiful retreat only a couple of hours from the city

Beautiful retreat only a couple of hours from the city

The Green House (and it really is THAT green) is in the perfect position above the quiet harbour at Whakapirau opposite Pahi. With no shops in the village and only a couple of streets, it's perfect if you're looking for a peaceful weekend away from it all. It's a classic bach (comfortable, amazing views, home-from-home) with those views just outside the window. The hill side deck gets all the morning sun, and afternoon and sunset hits the harbour side - it's a win win. Kitchen is well resourced, there's a wood burner for when it gets nippy (although the house is obviously well insulated), and some nice decorating touches. We used it as a base to visit Mangawhai, Ruakaka, the Caves, the waterfall - but really, I imagine its designed for hanging out around the BBQ and watching the big skies. The shops are about 15min drive back up the road, with a well stocked FourSquare and some decent cafes. We really enjoyed it, and would recommend it without hesitation.

Thank you very much for the stay. We wished it could have been for longer. A great place to get away from it all. Such a peaceful bay and the rope swing at the south end of the beach was a hit, not only with the kids but all of us old farts. The bunk beds were awesome for the kids. The only small negative is both the double beds. An upgrade on these and it would make for the perfect relaxing weekend. Many thanks. We would love to come back. John

The Green House was in a fabulous spot for the Easter break. A very well stocked, clean bach with great facilities. We definitely got use out of both the indoor and outdoor fires and the games cupboard. Very friendly community, about a 15min drive to a fairly large 4 Square at Maungaturoto if you run out of supplies.
