Enjoy the most stunning ocean views in our private studio with own exterior access, kitchenette and bathroom. The place is nestled in a quiet suburb, 15 minutes of walking distance to the beach and 5 minutes of drive to the city centre. Located on the first floor of a family house (with two little children) with truly special history - originally constructed in England and then shipped for NZ and South Seas International Exhibition in 1920s which attracted over 3.2 million visitors! Our studio is modern and private, the entry is through a kitchenette equipped with a fridge, microwave, toaster and kettle. Tea and coffee is provided for your convenience. The bedroom is equipped with a comfortable queen-sized bed and work desk. An additional mattress can be provided if you are travelling with children. A wooden staircase that leads to the main family house is located directly in the bedroom, which should be considered if staying with toddlers. A separate bathroom is accessed from the kitchenette. The access to the studio is from the steep driveway on the right-hand side of the house. Look for the door with a picture of sailing boat. Please park on the street and walk down to the studio. With a small car you can drive down to unload your things, but the narrow driveway must be reversed. Parking is on a quiet safe street, with plenty of room.

Currently full-time looking after two little children, which takes up most of my time :) I also enjoy hiking, cycling, tramping, rock climbing, skiing, and any sort of outdoor activities. Running a guest studio is a new challenge for me :)
