Set on the wild West Coast, between the small coastal towns of Punakaiki and Westport, is a family holiday house. Be welcomed with sweeping beach views and magical sunsets. The two-storey house has plenty of space with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a lounge, kitchen and dining area. The kids will love being so close to the beach.
- A beautiful self-contained holiday home with 3 bedrooms
- The house features amazing views of the ocean
- Close to Charleston and Pancake Rocks
- Perfect for families
Make the most of outdoor living with a private deck, patio and barbecue. Located 20 minutes drive from both Westpoint and Punakaiki. Punakaiki lies at the edge of the Paparoa National Park, the home of the famous Punakaiki Pancake Rocks and Blowholes. Wander through native forest to the rugged coastline and gaze at the unique limestone formations.
A bit further north is Westport, first a gold mining town that turned into a coal-mining town. Visit the seal colony at Cape Foulwind. Depending on the season, you may be able to see up to 100 New Zealand fur seals in their natural habitat. For adventure seekers, rafting and caving or multi-day hiking and cycling wilderness trips should suit you!
