Private decks with breathtaking sunsets and sea views Grafton is a place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Its a peaceful setting nestled on the hills of Thames yet only 5 mins to town. We have uniquely designed self contained studios and one bedroom units.
We have owned Grafton since November 2012. We love working here and meeting people daily and sharing our piece of paradise with our guests. We are 'kiwis' but have spent a large amount of time living away from home travelling the world.
