  Was noch ...

  We are an isolated, rural community, people are laid back and you just have to take us as you find us. Most of our community life revolves around the marae. There are opportunities to explore our coastline and beaches. We don't drink alcohol or smoke at our home. If helper wanted to drink alcohol we would prefer they do that off -site. Single people or married couple workawayers are very welcome to stay with us.
