About us

Meet the family

We have been developing this slice of paradise since 1988. It was a lifestyle change for us and our 3 sons grew up here and completed correspondence school and had many adventures along the way. We love sharing the local stories with our guests and can answer any questions about the area.

Zoe our young German Pointer is very playful. Bob the black lab tries to teach her how to behave. The latest members of our family are two very cute Kunekune pigs named Miss Pig & Pearl. They are very friendly and will entertain you for hours.

 

Walking & Mountain Bike Riding

"Waitata Bay in the Marlborough Sounds is beautiful. I enjoyed the native bush walk and listening to the birds. Beautiful  vistas everywhere."

Rest & Relaxation

"This was the most restful holiday my husband and I have ever had.  Waitata Bay in the Marlborough Sounds is so beautiful you don't want to leave.  The best bit was lying on the beach listening to the water lapping and reading a good book".
A  from Wellington
