A unique eco strawbale holiday house

A holiday home that blends with its surroundings. Earthy tones, rustic hardwood beams, natural lime plastered walls and oak floors. Encircled by groves of native Kanuka trees in a peaceful rural setting. Plenty of space for the kids to play pétanque or football on the front lawn. Sit back, relax and enjoy the mountainous views as your backdrop.

The holiday house is located on the outskirts of Kaikoura, the perfect base to encounter a variety of wildlife such as dolphins, seals, albatross and whales. Hiking enthusiasts are in for a treat here. Take a 20-minute walk to the Hapuku River and discover a deep swimming hole, or visit New Zealand’s biggest Totara tree.

There are three bedrooms spread over two floors, giving everyone their own space. Read a book under a tree or have an afternoon nap in the hammock. Choose from two outdoor tables to enjoy family meals in nature. Borrow mountain bikes from your hosts and take the forest track to Hapuku Beach - an iconic surf break can be found here.
