Our Beach house is in an idyllic subtropical location on Kawau Island. After you hop off the ferry at Schoolhouse Bay we are only 5 minutes walk up the hill from the wharf which is so handy. You can swim and fish at the wharf and there is safe swimming at schoolhouse Bay and other bays such as ladies bay around the island. Once you are at the house you can relax on the deck while enjoying the fantastic views of the harbour. The house is very private as it is surrounded by bush. So quiet and peaceful and it is a treat to listen to many different native birds. Mansion House the historical former home of Sir Governor Grey New Zealand’s first Governor is half an hour walk away through the bush and you can also explore places like ladies bay and the old coppermine lookout. We have a mooring available at Harris Bay just let me know if you would like to use this.
