About the host
Your host
Terry and I both love nature and Kaikoura and all it has to offer. We are based in Christchurch. We have planted 1000s of native plants to create a natural haven and to attract native bird life.
Why they chose this property
Kora’s View is peaceful and is surrounded by nature. Friend farm animals greet you, there is an abundance of bird life that is attractive to the abundance of native plants we have planted . The deck is huge and invites relaxation.
