Tracey's place is a very interesting architecturally designed house with very clever discreet spaces to create privacy for the rented area. The property is perched on the top of a cliff so has glorious views, but the centre of the garden is very sheltered by the structures. There is a huge very comfy bed and large-head shower with Infinity hot water - and everything you could need in the kitchen and by way of furnishing. Immediately around the house are good walks, especially down along the beach. Oakura has a fish and chip shop, Four Square, pub and a couple of cafes on the main road. However the town is only a short drive from New Plymouth for many more options. Tracey is a very knowledgable host and extremely helpful. The Black Sands pizzeria just along the beach from the house is well worth a visit, but you need to book as it is very popular.
