Couples Escape Outdoor Bath | Close to Beach - KK00139

This little house has travelled further than most of its guests! It started life in the Sounds, was loaded onto a barge and floated to the mainland, then made a slow and very tricky road trip to where it sits today. Its journey featured on Moving Houses on TVNZ+, well worth a watch. Today it’s a romantic retreat for two, close to the beach, with an outdoor bath and outdoor shower for soaking up the fresh air. You’ll find it in Ōaro, about 25 minutes south of Kaikōura town.
