General Overview

Our house is a 4 bedroom/3 bathroom newly renovated home set in a beautiful large sub-tropical private, garden. We are a 1 min walk to the famous Rainbow Falls Waterfalls where you can enjoy a swim in a wild setting during the summer months. Or, just enjoy forest walking track which follows along a stream leading down to the famous Stone Store and the award winning Honey Pot Cafe & The Plough & Feather for coffee, lunch, evening live music with alfresco pizza or indoor dining on the inlet. The track is a great walking/jogging track - 4 km each way or a short drive to the Stone Store basin. The house has a large main bedroom with en-suite/toilet. This room had a new king size bed, with organic linen and sliding doors out onto the garden with palm trees. At the opposite end of the house is a self contained large room with its own wooden deck table and chairs and it’s own entrance. This is great for a separate couple/adult as it has a small fridge, toaster, coffee/tea making facilities. It has a en-suite shower/toilet, tv and brand new king size bed with luxury linen. The 3rd bedroom has a king single. The 4th bedroom is currently used as a tv/games room and has a brand new king size sofa bed. The house has been recently renovated with new kitchen, appliances, carpet, beds, linen and furniture. There are 2 outdoor living areas including a new Weber BBQ. My mother lives on-site in a separate dwelling which does not interfere with the privacy of the main house.

The Space

The house has a very resort like sub tropical feel with a relaxing, peaceful and quiet environment to enjoy life in Kerikeri & Northland. We have Sky Tv, Sky Sports, Netflix, Disney. There are 3 tvs. The family bathroom has a bath & shower. There is a seperate toilet. Both en-suits have shower & toilet. We have paddle boards to enjoy paddle boarding at the local beaches. There is a casual paddle boarding club who meet at the Stone Store. We have 2 brand new fishing kayaks, Snorkel gear and surfboards.

Katie

We are 2 semi-retired adults who work from home with an 11 year old son who is a keen skier and surfer. We are therefore flexible and are always keen to swap to destinations for surfing or skiing. We are also open to longer term exchanges. We are open to all enquiries, particularly those in a surf or ski location. We don’t have any pets, but we would be delighted to look after dogs & cats.. We have completed 4 wonderful exchanges (we are also on Home Exchange website) and are keen to continue as they were all fantastic experiences.
