Australia“Although it’s pretty small the studio is really comfortable and was perfect for our stay. The gardens are fabulous and the host very friendly and helpful. The kitchenette is small but there are lots of eating out options in town if you want more...”

Tony & Jill
This peaceful studio retreat is at the rear of our section, across a small stream where you are surrounded by native, fruit and exotic trees, birdlife and a chance to 'be'. Enjoy the private, secluded spa/hot tub/jacuzzi.
5 minutes by car from Whanganui Central with a real country feel, but 'in town'. King bed (or converted to two singles), access to the family's, swimming pool & BBQ area by the main house. A sink, microwave, toaster, toasted sandwich maker and coffee machine offer self-catering. A continental breakfast is provided. Sorry, no pets or smoking.
Come, relax, enjoy!
There is plenty to enjoy in Whanganui from a full-day jet boat trip to the "Bridge to Nowhere" to a ride on the Waimarie, steamboat. Then there are two black-sand beaches, a 30-40 minute walk around Virginia Lake, a visit to the local museum or newly refurbished Art Gallery. Glass blowing, the Saturday market, many cafes and a good supply of restaurants will keep you happy. Whanganui has a long history and the only river to have a living identity. It's a wonderful launching pad for a journey to New Plymouth, National Park or the country's capital Wellington with its ferries on to the South Island. Come relax and enjoy!
