Escape to a haven where time stands still and nature paints the perfect backdrop for your coastal retreat. Welcome to the Harbour Master's Cottage! Tucked away on the side of Paku, surrounded by lush foliage and embraced by ancient trees, our cottage offers a retreat like no other. Imagine.... stepping out the door for a morning walk up the ancient volcano peak, strolling down the hill for a beach afternoon and finishing the day with wine on the deck taking in the magnificent coastal views.
Hi Britta, I'm an environmental engineer with beautiful 2 girls and 2 dogs. My husband Mike and I love hiking, mtbing, skiing and just getting away to somewhere different. Please don't hesitate to contact me via the app should you have any questions at all.
