About this property
The Amazing House Truck
A lovingly restored and beautifully presented old house truck with fantastic sea views in a private bush location. This fully equipped wagon is a cosy sanctuary to restore your pioneer spirit. Two queen size beds are accessed by steps and there's an outdoor bath and shower with a separate composting toilet in its own adjacent hut.
A wood fire or heater keeps the beautifully crafted kauri and oak timber interior warm on cooler days. This is the ideal place for a couple to get away from the hustle of daily life. Even in stormy nights staying in this house truck is a comfortable experience. Golden Bay Hideaway - don't hesitate to look us up, four unique accommodation options.
