Maison

This is our Summer House with our own private beach front and half acre of native bush (Note New Zealand does not have any dangerous animals or reptiles).
Situated near Russell, in the Bay of Islands, it is a comfortable 4.5hrs drive north of New Zealand’s International Airport and largest City Auckland. As this is our second home we have no problems in exchange and dates are flexible.
By the way if you are into seafoods fresh oysters and mussels grow on the rocks at the bottom of the garden in a safe tranquil swimming Bay opening to the Pacific Ocean.
Dolphins come into our Bay a number of times a year plus the occasional pod of orcas.
Seasons here are the opposite of what they are in the Northern hemisphere, with the best summer months falling in end October through to April.
The house built (mid 70's )of natural timbers and cedar is of 4 bedrooms; Two of the Double bedrooms have an ensuite ( WC & Shower ) and king size beds, the other two upstairs bedrooms each have 2 single beds and a shared bathroom. ( WC & Shower over bath )
The Home also has two lounges plus decks and BarBQ area.
Native birds inhabit the bush and you can hear the kiwi at night.
Also at night you can watch the Satellites going overhead in a fabulous southern hemisphere star studded sky.

Quartier

Russell is a quaint quiet village, and was the first capital of New Zealand and one of the first European settlements. Originally known as “The Hell Hole of the Pacific” the town is rich in history with a variety of shops cafes and restaurants that do not spoil the old charm. Hours can be spent in the museum tracing the towns history from the first European settlers, whaling and marine history. Even the headstones at New Zealand's first church have a story to tell. The old charm, history, modern facilities and access to many attractions make it the perfect base for a romantic stay, family holiday or base to explore the upper north island. with regular car Ferry services (NZ$18.00 return)to the mainland and Passenger ferries operate continuously to the tourist town of Paihia where additional shops and attractions can be found.
The City of Whangarei is a 45 minute drive South and KeriKeri is but 25 minutes drive north.

À propos de nous

My wife and I are late 50's and live in Auckland, New Zealand. We have been in business since our late teens. Now, as Grandparents, we have decided to mellow, slow down, kickback and hope to travel more.We are both non smokers and would not want any smoking in the house nor do we have any pets.
We would treat your house with the greatest respect and care and would expect you to do likewise. Although we are pet lovers we would not like to have the responsibility for your Pets as we wish not to be tied at being back at feeding times.

We are interested in visiting a large variety of countries such as England, Spain, Turkey, Canada and USA for starters or any/all opportunities considered. We are looking at taking our first major overseas vacation, so we envisage in our initial exchange, an exchange of a home fairly close to a major city or cities. In the future as we gain experience, we will get more adventurous.
Our swap vehicle is a 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer GLXi Wagon.

If you are interested in visiting New Zealand we would love to hear from you.

As this is a 2nd Home - non-simultaneous exchanges are OK, and the dates are flexible. We can bank time in your home for a future date if you wish to take advantage of our home. (It is October 2008)Please note our UPDATE:
Our Home has already been booked for NOVEMBER 2008 through to Februrary 2009 and part of April 2009. A couple of weeks of JANUARY 2010 is also penciled in.
Other times are still available.
We have OUR travel plans and exchanges organized and in place for June - September 2009 in southern parts of England and Northern parts of France.
WE are looking for exchanges now in the Northern Hemisphere, for say June to September 2010 but we are open to suggestions.
