About this Holiday House

Queen Charlotte Sounds at its best. This property is boat access only so you can escape from the hussle and bustle of city life! New Zealand at it's best! A perfect spot to have a wine on the big deck area and chill as the sun goes down - or if you are an earlybird watch the sunrise (pictured). The house is a comfortable 3 bedroom sunny home offering the ideal spot to unwind. There is fantastic wild life all around the property and a large lawn for children and adults to play on. The back lawn area is fully fenced. The property comes with a safe mooring should you wish to bring a boat and a wharf to arrive, depart and fish from. Great property for families, small groups or a perfect spot for a quiet weekend away. Easy boat transfers available from Picton, assistance with arranging this can be provided. Dryden Bay is a fishing paradise, located close to the scollop area and within close boat access to cod fishing areas and the Cook Strait. Close to Ships Cove - the starting point of the Queen Charlotte track, and and an excellent picnic spot for a day out. Motuara Island bird santuary is a short boat ride and plenty of local walks are on your doorstep. If you feel like dinner out you could take your boat or a water taxi to one of the local resorts nearby. The beach is flat and sandy, very safe for children and families. An easy launching spot for the dinghy and kayaks. The wharf provides a great place for the kids to fish with a hand line. A great place to have fun or just chill with a book......the choice is all yours.

What a beautiful place to stay. Had an amazing 60th birthday there. Thank you Sue and Steve for allowing us to use your home. We loved it and will hopefully be back. Taking the boat so we could fish and get to places like Furneau Lodge and Punga Cove for a meal worked really well.
