Ahi As

We’ve named the first pourewa ‘Ahi Kā’ (people of the land keeping the fires burning) because the deeper purpose of Parangarehu lies in reconnecting the next generation with their whenua (land) by working on it through either conservation, tourism, and hospitality so, it’s not just a business it's a legacy project for our whānau.” Parangarehu is a special place, and we’ve always felt deeply connected to its mōuri (lifeforce). We’re excited for others to experience it too.”

Time out in our castle turret

Take it easy at this unique and tranquil getaway. This wee slice of paradise is about 10 minutes walk from our home on a 6 acre lifestyle block. We saved three ‘turrets’ from a local castle and have created a space away from the trappings of modern life (including electricity and cell coverage!) and our creek amongst our sheep, chickens and ducks. This space is ideal for two with a double bed, gas cooking as well as a pot belly stove and a seperate camping style bathroom.

Watch the sun go down with the amazing ocean views and listen to the bird life in the native bush that surrounds you.

'Funky Retro Caboose'

The little Caboose, 9 sqm, and kitchen/bathroom, 5 sqm, on our property are a much loved get-away surrounded by native vegetation. Idyllic, but also quite rustic: you have to cross the deck to the bathroom (amazing shower!) and kitchen, whatever the weather.🙂  I teach cello and you may hear this at times, as well as plenty of birds. A 5 min stroll to Queen Elisabeth Park and the beach. Private gate and on-street-parking.

The Hut

The hut is a beautifully crafted off the grid cabin located located on a sheep and beef farm, Daisybank, just minutes out of Martinborough . Open the doors right up on a nice day and enjoy the fresh air or cozy up with a blanket on the couch in front of the fire when the weather makes you want to bunker down. The outdoor bath is the icing on the cake to allow you to take in the views while relaxing in the tub
