Rick's place is a stunning location overlooking Raglan harbour. The room and balcony outside face directly towards this view. The house is nestled in a large section mostly compromised of native bush, secluding you from neighbours making it almost feel there is no one else about. Access straight to the beach from the house for exploring the harbour on paddle boards or if you are lucky as I was getting the privilege of being a deckhand on his catamaran.
Rick's a great host, laid back kiwi guy, seasoned waterman, with interesting stories and creative talent as an artist and designer. Real pleasure to stay with.
Will definitely try and stay here again at some point.
