Taiwawe is a beautiful little corner of New Zealand.
Some of the highlights for us :
The setting is wonderful. An iconic piece of NZ coastline with structures that sit lightly on the land and blend beautifully with the natural environment.
Peace and tranquillity from the splendid isolation.
The outdoor shower - which we used almost exclusively.
The outdoor kitchen - loved working in this space.
Stephen & Michelle (who live nearby and look after the place for the owners) were extraordinarily accommodating and friendly, with good local advice.
The spa pool - we set it up on the foreshore and heated it with gas.
Our black lab absolutely loved it - very dog friendly.
The indoor fire and the chimenea were well greatly enjoyed.
The front lawn with the chairs was a lovely spot and we took the kitchen table out there to eat a few times.
If you are looking for high end luxury with all the mod cons then look elsewhere, but if you are looking to kick back in a special spot with family and friends then this is hard to replicate.
