About this property

Beautiful native bush retreat


  • Tranquil and relaxed getaway in a pristine New Zealand Native forest Setting. A short three minute stroll beneath a canopy of beautiful bush to find this secluded hideaway overlooking farmland and dramatic hills beyond.
    Self contained open plan living, super comfortable bed with cool Mid Century pull out sofa bed for added guests. Indoor bathroom accessed by adjoining deck. (separate from main living space). Enjoy the outdoor bath and open shower open to the forest canopy or wonder through the beautiful bush to the Cedar tub nestled beneath Majestic Giant Puriri.

    This comfortable space adorned with mid century furniture including record player and homewares made on site by SYML. This is a perfect place for you to relax and unwind.
    Snuggle up in bed and watch Netflix or Disney on your very own super wide projection screen.

    Enjoy the fantastic local walks close by, visit a vineyard or two or a stroll along Pakiri beach or just relax by the outdoor fire. Extra friends are $75NZD each.

    Park next to the workshop off Smith road and 150m stroll down to the bush hut. Free to wander about and explore the native forest or pop up to the main house for a chat?
