  Description

  We are Richard and Jolanda - we live in Takaka, Golden Bay. We have a house and large garden and live a stones throw from the main shops and cafes. We are also about ten minutes walk from the Takaka river.
  
  Takaka is a wonderful small and friendly community. There is a diverse population of travellers, retired people, farmers and business people. Its kind of the unofficial yoga centre of New Zealand - we have many people practicing alternative lifestyles here.
