Additional Information
Our boutique Bach is very special , it is a million miles from a basic holiday home. Set on the hill in native bush overlooking a private white sandy beach and the beautiful Bay of Islands. Immaculate and charming with high-quality Wallace Cotton bed linens & a laid back luxury interior. The small bedroom would suit a child or extra person .
Outside, relax on the recliners, enjoy the fire pit or BBQ under the stars. You are just a short walk through the bush to the private cove where you will find dinghies and kayaks .There are fresh herbs to pick and a fire pit with a stock of dry wood and marshmallows waiting.
The Kiwis call at night and are easy to spot, an absolute must during your visit.

Driftwood Seaside Escapes.
Vanessa and her family are serious travellers and sailors. After 8 years at sea, they made Driftwood Seaside Escapes their home, it boasts 120 acres on the Purerua Peninsula, now their home and business. Offering unique insight into authentic & nostalgic Kiwi life through their gorgeous accommodation, which is designed to be your ticket to affordable laid back luxury. Being travellers too, the Owen family realised that the feeling of being "at home" is very important when travelling, whether you are still in your own country or on the other side of the world. Each of our cottages is both your home away from home as well as a reflection of our travels. You can see the years spent in France and the Caribbean reflected in the interior design and tropical gardens, making each private cottage a very personal space that also reflects the unique and casual Kerikeri lifestyle, whilst making guests feel immediately relaxed and at home.
