Return from your adventures to sit on the large deck to relax and enjoy the serenity of the country, with sounds of birdlife, the evening sunset, and cows that graze in the nearby paddocks.
Indoors there is TV, a guitar to play, or tackle a game of Chess. There are games for the children and toys for the little ones.
When you feel like exploring it's only 8 Minutes drive to the famous black sands of Muriwai Beach, popular for it's wonderful surf, Golf Club and Gannet Colony.
Take a walk along the west coast walkway or enjoy a horse-trek along the vast spetacular Coastline. There is also 4wheel drive access up one end of the beach, permit required.

    Hazel and Lawrence are gracious and unobtrusive hosts. This is the 2nd time Hazel has hosted our golf group and we will very likely stay there again in 3 years time if the tournament is back at Muriwai. The property and the facilities catered very well for our group of 6 adult males on a golfing trip and was an ideal place to rest up each evening after golf. Thank-you.

    Was a perfect place to stay for a wedding nearby. Everything was as described and there was plenty of room for 4 adults and 2 children.

    Wonderful home for families. Three spacious rooms with plenty of options for sleeping, and a separate room set aside for babies and toddlers. Plenty of room to run around outside. Amenities exactly as described. Only hiccup was the tv, as we couldn't figure out the remote-control situation, so probably best bring your own HDMI cable as a backup. My elderly parents found easier access through front door rather than patio. Hazel is lovely and always responded quickly to messages or calls from us.

    Lovely rural location and close to Muriwai beach. Hazel was a breeze to communicate with and we loved all the hand written notes around the place as well as the games and activities for the children.
