NOT JUST A STAY, we are a stay you will remember!
We aren't just a stay in a room - we are an experience you will remember!
If you are travelling alone, a couple, a family or friends on tour - LOOK NO FURTHER!
A clean, unique, private, very cosy, 2 storey, 3 bedroom house all to yourself.
Situated on a small hill with magnificent views over farmlands to the sea & back to the Seaward Kaikoura Ranges and township. You will not be disappointed with the elevated views, the property, our friendly animals, or us!
We are offering our guests to come and experience some of our lifestyle and your stay is in a unique and quirky 3 bedroom house built mostly from recycled and reclaimed materials. Your house is clean, self contained and makes this an affordable holiday accommodation with stunning views, peace and privacy that you will remember!
3 bedrooms & can sleep 6+.
Downstairs:
2 bedrooms 1 with a Queen and the other with 2 single beds and a cot.
Loungeroom has comfortable lounges, a wall hung tv with heaps of streaming services (netflix, sky, neon, disney+, tvnz, prime). Chess set that is just awesome, a huge amount of board games to keep everyone entertained. Piano, guitar.
Laundry with washing machine and cleaning products, dryer.
Bathroom with shower and small bath combination, shampoo, conditioner, soaps and all towels and linens provided.
Upstairs is an open plan if you think loft/studio style containing a king bed, kitchen, dining table and small sitting area with a queen pull out sofa bed, fantastic elevated views of mountains, farmlands, sea and township.
Again, the Cubby House Stay is well stocked and should surprise you.
We are perched on a hill top, a short 8 minute scenic drive north of Kaikoura, the Cubby House is easily accessible from the main State Highway 1 in a rural setting with never ending views.
These stunning views over farmlands from the mountains to the sea will take your breath away. Wake up to bird song, including Tuis and Bellbirds, and the distant sound of the ocean.
The Cubby House is private and peaceful as it is just us here and we are up the drive in a seperate house.
Yes, we are ideal for those who are travelling alone, couple, 2 couples travelling together or a family or small group up to 6 people.
Our farm animals and pets have quirky personalities and love to be patted, scratched and hand fed - you will love getting up close to the animals if you choose to and we will even take the photos of you and animals so you can totally enjoy your experience.
You wont be disappointed!
