Escape the rush of everyday life and unwind at this peaceful coastal oasis in Purau, just 45 minutes from Christchurch.

Perfect for couples, families, or friends looking to slow down and reconnect, this relaxed seaside retreat captures the charm of classic Kiwi bach living. Wake up to the quiet of the harbour, enjoy morning coffee in the sea air, spend your days exploring the shoreline, and wind down in the evening with drinks on the deck as the sun sets over the hills.

Bring your furry friend...
We love our furry doggy friends and we want you to be able to bring yours on special holidays too.
The only thing that we ask is that the dogs do not come inside the house.
The property is fully fenced and the dogs can sleep either in the garage or on the deck. There is a $30 pet fee added to the booking.

Our holiday home operates like most NZ holiday homes on a ”Bring your own Linen basis” that is your own sheets, pillowslips, towels & tea towels for your own use.
We have to be conservative and careful of water use here in Purau especially during summer months as Purau properties use rain fed water tanks.
Guests are asked to bring lots of fresh drinking water to supplement the household supply.
