An eco-friendly holiday house in the sub-tropical Far North

Spend hours gazing out over the Pacific Ocean from your eco-friendly holiday house. Set on the Whangarei Heads, where some of the first Europeans settled in New Zealand. The forestry industry became an important source of income. In 1864, Taiharuru Farm was built by the Robinson and Butler families.

And today, more than 40,000 trees have been planted to preserve natural heritage. The area is rich in biodiversity, birdlife and lush native forest. Keep an eye out for orcas and dolphins swimming through the blue waters. Make use of the tennis court, gym, kayaks, snorkelling gear and SUP boards.

This family holiday house has three bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen and plenty of outdoor living space. Wander down to your private cove, go fishing or discover the farm walking trails on the 50-hectare private coastal estate.
