Pomare's Secret - Russell NZ

Set high above a canopy of native bush with a tranquil view of yachts anchored in the bay below is your own private, downstairs studio, bathed in sunshine, with the quaint historic village of Russell a 5-minute drive away.

Surrounded by nature you can hear Kiwi calling in the night, wake to the sound of Tui, joined by Fantails, Wood Pigeons, Tom Tits, and Weka as they go about their day.

Down a 150-meter native bush track is beautiful secluded Pomare Bay, sheltered by giant Pohutakawa.
The space
Uninterrupted views and ample light provide the perfect retreat for you to chill out, pause and reflect, while soaking up the comfortable contemporary surrounds that include: a spacious living area, kitchenette, TV with Netflix, Wi-Fi, separate bedroom with Queen bed, and roomy bathroom. Or soak up the rays on the expansive deck.

Kept to the highest standard, every effort has been made to ensure your stay is perfect, with all linen provided, quality bedding, high-pressure shower plus toiletries (due to water restrictions baths are not possible), tea & coffee making facilities, toaster, microwave, induction cooktop, all crockery/cutlery/utensils, and a Webber BBQ to cater for light meals
Guest access
Situated on the ground floor of the private residence the studio has its own private entrance enabling you to come and go freely and enjoy exclusive use.

Parking is available onsite for one vehicle.
Other things to note
We are on limited tank water supply, therefore, would ask that you conserve water.

The main residence is situated above so some movement may be heard and emanate from within both areas.
