About this property

Beautiful rural house close to beach and amenities

Our house is a unique design with a Japanese flavour situated in a large garden of spray free vegetables, fruit and native trees. From our top bedroom there are peeks of the sea at beautiful Wharekaho Beach just 3 minutes walk away, while behind us is rolling farmland, home to a few friendly cows which sometimes roam the paddock across the fence. We have an open plan living room and kitchen which open onto decks on both sides where we often have breakfasts and barbeques. Guests are welcome to share vegetables from our well cared for garden. Your hosts Ross and Sumi will be in a caravan in a corner of the property and might sometimes need to maintain the property eg mow lawns etc.

About the host

Hosted by ross liggins

Host profile image
I am a Kiwi and my partner Sumi is from Japan. We live and work here in Whitianga. Sumi is a natural health practitioner while I am semi-retired and do a little property maintenance and surf coaching. We both enjoy gardening and ocean-based activities.

Why they chose this property

Our property is rural but only a few minutes walk from the beach. We have a beautiful garden where guests can relax and help themselves to fresh spray-free vegetables

What makes this property unique

Backing onto a farm and being very near the beach gives our home the unique combination of a rural and maritime location. We especially love the birdlife in our garden as we eat and drink on the outside decks.
