About the host
Hosted by Vicky Mitchell
We are a young family that work hard and we want to share our special piece of beach paradise with others. We are lucky enough to have been able to keep this house and buy another home and this is now our nest egg and holiday house. We also have a granny flat we airbnb out at Raumati Beach which sleeps 3.
Why they chose this property
The Health Camp Homestead was the original farm house on the farm land surrounding the Children's Health Camp in the 1930s-1940s. You will notice it's unique position and the front door being at the side of the house because the very long driveway used to come off Tasmen Road. The house has been modernised over the years and is now a super warm and cosy family beach house/bach that we want to share with others.
What makes this property unique
We love the location of our property. It's a couple of hundred metres from the playground, 7 min walk to the beach and a few minutes walk to the old closed down Health camp, where you can walk the dog or cut across the property to explore the forest. Beyond the Health Camp is a beautiful redwood forest with easy waking tracks and a rope swing. We are also not too far from the river.
