Peaceful, private and stunning views

A relaxing, well provisioned, sunny, property with stunning views of Mahakipawa Sound and surrounding bush clad hills from the extensive sunny deck, living areas and main bedroom.

An original 50's Kiwi bach, which has been modestly upgraded, yet retaining its charm. With no internet and fringe cell phone coverage, it's the perfect spot to get unplugged and relax. Aside from the outdoors playground, there is a full games cupboard and an extensive, retro, DVD collection for all ages.
Drive on access with parking for several cars and only a 10 minute drive to Havelock for top up supplies.

The bach itself sleeps 6 and the more recently built, detached sunny sleep out (4th bedroom), can accommodate the extra family or teenagers.
The local beach or public ramp are within a few minutes walk and great bases for launching the two sit on top kayaks provided (use wheels sets to pull them to ramp)... As Moenui is very tidal, playing on the water is best mid to high tide. However, there are plenty of alternative beaches and rivers within close proximity.. The mud is fun too!!
The outdoor, wood fired bath, is a perfect way to end the day and gaze at the starry night sky. (Please be aware that during some hot, dry summers there may be a fire ban across Marlborough, in which case the fire under the bath cannot be lit).

There is a boat launching ramp at Moenui and an all tide, commercial ramp in Havelock (see photos). The bach has a mooring available.
An abundance of local adventures and exploration - hike or bike the extensive Link Pathway and other world class tracks, sea kayaking, Mail boat cruise, wine tastings, Omaka Air Force Museum, good coffee and green lipped mussels from the various Havelock cafes. In winter check out Rainbow ski field.
Ideally located for local events such as Mussel Festival, Omaka Air Show, The Grape Ride and Whites Bay Enduro.

This central location makes it easy to explore Nelson (1hr) Picton (35mins), Marlborough Sounds, Nelson Lakes, Richmond Range and much more.

Special conditions:
Cell phone coverage in Moenui fluctuates, but best to assume no coverage
No wifi - enjoy being unplugged
Deck and section not suitable for unsupervised small children
Some pets may be accommodated by prior arrangement
Extras: Cleaning now obligatory NZ $95.00 per stay; Linen (Optional, NZ$25.00 per person); Guest numbers over 4 are $30 per person per night
