Down a long driveway is a private Guesthouse in sunny Waitara. It is a cosy self-contained unit with off-street parking for 1 vehicle, a full kitchen and bathroom with washing machine. A dining area, comfy queen-sized bed and sofa completes the inside. Outside there is a private garden, a small sun-filled patio and a BBQ. Waitara is a seaside town with a river dividing two swimmable beaches, a supermarket and several takeaway food options. New Plymouth city is a 15 minute drive for events, dining and entertainment. Mount Taranaki is close by for hiking, skiing and climbing.

I'm open to new experiences and travel regularly to see family or dance a little Tango. I enjoy meeting my guests and wish for them to feel right at home from the moment they arrive. My optimistic life motto has always been: "Dance, and the world dances along with you." Phone or message me about anything that will make your stay more comfortable.

The neighbourhood is both rural and suburban. A quiet little garden with plenty of bird life. The neighbours along the shared driveway wave out to everyone and a grey fluffy stray cat occasionally makes a visit. You would need a vehicle to get around and see the best the district offers. Travel to New Plymouth takes 15min along State Highway 3 but be aware of on-going road-works (2025). There is a local Uber or taxi service available if you prefer. The airport shuttle can be booked to drop off and collect you for flights and a local bus timetable for daytime trips is in the Guesthouse manual.
