About this space
Countryside Charm: Your Peaceful Getaway
The space
Discover tranquillity at our countryside retreat, situated on a serene 5-acre property between Whanganui and Marton—just an easy 18-minute drive to either town. Whether you're exploring the vibrant Whanganui region, visiting nearby towns, or venturing into the area’s beautiful bush walks, our central location makes it all accessible.
This cozy, two-story guesthouse is separate from the main historic homestead, offering privacy and comfort. The upper level combines a snug bedroom and lounge, while the ground floor features a fully equipped modern kitchen, dining area, and bathroom. With double glazing, a heat pump, and a sunlit interior, this space is designed for relaxation. Enjoy breakfast provisions, Wi-Fi, a smart TV with Chromecast, and the option to accommodate up to three guests with a futon bed in the lounge and a porta cot available on request.
Unwind on the elevated, sunny deck with stunning countryside views, rejuvenate in the infrared sauna, or take a peaceful walk through the property’s bushland. Whether you're soaking up the rural surroundings or getting cozy indoors, our retreat has everything you need for a refreshing escape.
Conveniently located just 2 km off State Highway 3 on a quiet, no-exit road, the guesthouse offers the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility. We live in the main homestead and share the property with two friendly small dogs who may greet you upon arrival. Occasionally, you might hear our visiting grandchildren playing nearby—they're as welcoming as we are.
Experience our cozy, hygge-inspired retreat—a haven to recharge, reconnect with nature, and explore the wonders of Whanganui and Rangitikei.
