Waipu town was settled by the Scottish 160 years ago. The heritage is very strong today with many of the descendants from the ships still living in Waipu today. The Waipu Cove/Langs Beach area is a beautiful part of the East Coast of Northland. Within minutes of the Homestead there are 2 beautiful white sandy beaches, native bush and forest areas, and in the local area you can visit a waterfall, glow-worm Caves, Coastal walks, golf, horse riding, surfing, swimming, and good dining options. There is plenty to do in the area to make this a great destination between the Bay of Islands and Auckland.
