    The bath once we found some paper to light the fire to heat it . The two matches were a challenge for 3 nights but we rose to it. Added a bit of spark to our life.

Our unique Flax Pod cabin is a repurposed shipping container with cool views of Golden Bay. It suits a relaxed couple, has a queen bed, sofa and kitchenette. Bifolding doors open onto a deck where you can totally relax, enjoy a cold beer, sink into a quirky hot tub and soak up the sea views. Its in a great location and a great base to explore Golden Bay from. Enjoy getting back to the basics, dozing in a hammock, a friendly weka or two and a spectacular night sky.
A friendly relaxed family who love going on adventures with their 3 children aged 2, 7 and 9. We wont disturb you however you are welcome to text us or pop up to the house for any advice or suggestions on what to do and see, or if anything goes wrong.
Quiet neighbourhood shared with local people and local wildlife. It has stunning views in every direction and the valley is clad in trees. A very special place with lots of birds such as kea, kereru, weka, tui, bellbird. We have 7 kea living in our valley which land on our property and the cabin from time to time. While we love these colourful birds, please do not feed them and gently encourage them away if they start vandalising the cabin. We also have a flock of 50+ kereru so if you’re a bird lover bring your camera. By car is best. 10 mins drive to Takaka. There is a bus stop at the bottom of Pohara Valley Road. We are 10 mins walk to the beach and 15mins walk to the shops, cafe and bars of Pohara. Tata beach and Ligar beach are 5mins drive and Wainui Beach and Totaranui are further on from them.
