There is a path in the bush section which is a loop. Especially lovely first thing in the morning. Other times of the day it is worth wearing mosquito repellant. Take in the native trees: Nikau, Kauri, two ancient Totara and Puriri trees to name a few. Watch your step, it is only partially maintained to keep its natural look.
We have a vegetable patch on the side of the driveway just up from the garage on the left. Feel free to help yourself to anything that is ready, there are plenty of herbs. It is mostly organic and we use our own compost to help it grow.
There are fruit trees: lemon, lime, plum, feijoa, fig and macadamia nuts. If they're ripe help yourself.
Guest access The whole house and property will be available except one locked room.
Uncovered parking space for 3 cars in front of the double-garage, first right as you come down the drive. The house entrance is down the stairs to the right of the garage.
Other things to note: We have lovely friendly neighbours who will respect your privacy, but be there should you need anything.
