Welcome to your peaceful retreat! We've designed the studio as your cozy haven away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life – a place where you can truly relax and recharge. It has a generous space of 36.51m2. To help you settle in and make the most of your stay, we offer an earlier check-in at 2 PM and a leisurely 11 AM check-out, so there's no need to rush - you can have a sleep-in if you choose. The non-smoking studio features a well-equipped kitchenette with a fridge and microwave, perfect for light meals and snacks. Each morning, wake up to a delightful self-serve continental breakfast featuring our homemade granola, a commercial cereal, bread for toasting, and a range of preserves. We also offer you a choice of milk you prefer during your stay. During the warmer months (November through March), our relined pool is yours to enjoy! While it's unheated, it's wonderfully refreshing on those glorious hot days. The pool temperature ranges from 26-30°C. Step out back to discover your private covered deck, an ideal spot to relax with a cup of coffee, tea or a glass of wine while gazing over our kitchen vegetable garden and the native bush beyond. It's the perfect setting for peaceful reflection or simply watching the world slow down. While you might catch glimpses of us going about our day, we'll always respect your privacy and give you plenty of space. That said, we're friendly folk – please don't hesitate to say hello or stop for a chat if you'd like.

Hello! My name is Tracey, and my husband is Mick. I was born in NZ, and Mick is originally from Cardiff, Wales. We love hosting guests in our home and welcome a chat if you see us. Travelling is one of our passions but also touring around our own backyard - beautiful NZ. Often I'll be in the kitchen cooking (I love to cook) and Mick can be found in the garden keeping on top of the lawns and vegetable gardens. Our goal is to offer homely accommodation that lets you rest & relax in your own private space but interact with us as you wish.

Green Bay & Titirangi have beautiful beaches close by, and if you like to walk/hike, there is of course, the stunning Waitakere Ranges a short drive away. We can also direct you to some short walks (30 minutes - 1 hour) from the property to explore this beautiful suburb and its surrounds. We are spoilt for dining choices with multiple eateries a 5-minute drive or 15-minute walk away in Titirangi Village. There is a restaurant/bar in the village (Iti) which is very popular with the locals and is a great choice if you feel like a beer or wine along with some small plates of food in the afternoon sun. For those who prefer to self-cater, we have two supermarkets within walking distance (15 minutes) & a fridge for storing food, as well as a microwave for reheating/minimal cooking. A blender is also provided for anyone who likes a morning smoothie or protein shake.
