Richards house is an original Miners Cottage from an old coal mining area. I know these cottages well having visited many when I was a boy.
Richards house is the real deal for an unvarnished slice of history, that is apart from the modern kitchen and bathroom. The local area is well known for its natural beauty and friendly people.
Richard is an impressive artist. His paintings are quite accomplished, and can be described as a complex venture into hyper-realism in a surrealist style, in out-of-this-world explorations of time/space continuum, featuring galaxies and phenomena multifarious, perhaps near or perhaps far away.
Visit the cottage to reminisce about how many lived in the recent past, visit the area for its old world charm and stunning natural beauty. Please remember, the West Coast of Aotearoa/New Zealand is still an outpost of and for the rugged individual and a genuine old-world Kiwi experience.
