Julie and Dave
Feel like you are captain of a ship sailing on the Pacific Ocean. The view is SEA-sational so watching becomes addictive. Dolphins visiting the bay, number in the 100’s & it’s exciting to watch them play. Aeroplanes landing & cruise ships passing as well as locals & their dogs out exercising - it’s easy to forget about tv altogether. Dave has spent years renovating this 1930’s vintage home to make it comfortable & modern with unique design features. He handmade the barn doors himself using recycled pellet wood & wine barrels. We warmly welcome all guests & trust you will respect & care for our home. Book this home near the sea for a relaxing getaway together. Go on sunny beach adventures, stroll by the shore. Enjoy this oceanfront experience with your favorite people while staying in a spacious, private home.
Nau mai haere mai - a Māori welcome from Julie & Dave. We love to spend time at 148 The Esplanade renovating or relaxing & stay as often as we can. We are passionate about music - Julie plays the ukulele & Dave the clarinet. We belong to blues & jazz clubs so hop into the city centre for live music. We enjoy singing in te reo Māori & you will see Māori & music inspired artworks around the home. When 148 is booked we tour the country in an ex fire engine - a 1982 vintage big Mack truck. Dave rebuilt a tiny house on the back and it draws crowds of people who think it is amazing. Julie designed the interior including a staircase using materials from her demolished earthquake house in Christchurch & a tiny antique fireplace called a Hot Doggy. We’re food & wine enthusiasts so though a tiny space - we manage to enjoy gourmet dining in the big Mack. We leave guests to enjoy their privacy but are happy to come & meet you for a coffee/wine & chat if invited.
Houghton Bay is located on the scenic south coast - it is famous for gorgeous sunsets over the Pacific Ocean towards the snowy South Island mountains so families & friends gather on the beach. On Sundays, Bait House aquarium is open across the road. It’s only a 5 min walk. Don’t miss this incredible experience to hold wild sea life in your hands! In front of 148 is The Great Southern walkway which extends past Island Bay, to Red Rocks where there is an information centre & unique natural scenery. There are lots of beachfront cafes either side but our favourite is Maranui in Lyall Bay a short drive to the left. Parrot Dog Brewery - some say the best beer in NZ has good burgers too & The Botanist vegetarian restaurant both for evening dining. Island Bay to the right has a fantastic children’s playground with a tiny cafe, The Grocers Shed for an ice-cream/coffee - under 10 min walk. Drive to the village for Hell pizza & a supermarket or wine & dine at the boutique movie theatre. Houghton Bay is a safe neighbourhood - mostly standalone family homes and the odd lighthouse. You will feel right at home.
