Studio by the beach

Treat yourself to the peace and tranquillity of our place! The studio has everything you need for a relaxed stay. It's a large colourful room with a comfy Queen size bed. It is nestled in our large garden with just a short walk down to the beach which is great for walking , swimming or fishing! Golden Bay has so much to offer with beaches, bush-walks, cafes and lots of artisans and we are only a few minutes drive from the renowned Mussel Inn! The Studio is detached and settled at the back of the main house, overlooking the garden with native bush area, organic vegetable garden and several fruit trees. It's a warm sunny room with plenty of space. The bathroom is in the main house, but it is for your use only. Just walk through the laundry to get to it through a private door. It's recently renovated. Tea & coffee is complementary for you. There is a toaster, kettle and microwave in the room, but sorry, no cooking facilities. The Studio is stocked with the essentials like salt & pepper, tea and coffee, plunger, bottle openers and wine glasses. Plus all the crockery, cutlery etc you will require for a stress free stay. There is also a fridge in the entrance way for your use. I can provide a portacot on request. We have a large TV screen in the room, for you to enjoy a movie through a movie box containing hundreds of movies, but it isn't connected to the usual TV channels or sky. However the Wi-Fi is great! There is also a family dog on the property, her name is Stella, and she is very friendly and will probably be the first one to greet you. We live in the main house and will be here to greet you and show you the room. We are happy to help in any way, just let us know. Parapara is a quiet seaside community. Fantastic safe beach that invites you for long beautiful walks. We are only minutes away from Collingwood, a small historic township with a little supermarket, cafes and galleries. Or take a drive north to check out Farewell Spit, Cape Farewell or Wharariki beach. Drive the other way and in 15 minutes you will be in Takaka, a town full of character. It is vibrant and arty and has a museum, a movie theatre and a great choice of shops, cafés and galleries. You will need your own transport to get here and to enjoy all what Golden Bay has to offer, as there is no public transport here.
