Tyson's Unique & Charming Waterfront Bach

Described as the ideal Writers’ retreat, Tyson’s Bach exudes charm, peace and inspiration. Set just 30m back from the beach, with beautiful views of the bay back to Opua, it is uniquely nestled into its own 3/4 acre of land. Whilst this property retains its character as a quintessential Kiwi Bach, it is immaculately presented inside, having been tastefully restored. Being private, tranquil and comfortable, makes it the perfect space for you and your family to relax, rest and explore the Bay.

Ferry Landing

Watch the harbour activities and ever changing vista from the deck of our clean and comfortable home. We are situated just above the car ferry on the Russell side of the Opua harbour. The ferry cost is $18 per car & runs a continual service. Or you can walk on for just $2 per person. Please note that although you have sole occupancy of the house, the property has another cottage & resident in it. The driveway is also shared. Kiwi spotting is a favourite thing to do. Red torch supplied to do this

The Smokehouse

The Smokehouse – a charming one-bedroom retreat where peace and relaxation meet a touch of fun. After a day at the beach, cool off with the outdoor shower, then kick back with a refreshing drink at the bar. As night falls, slip into the super king bed and drift off, dreaming of your next adventure. Enjoy a scenic walk around the beach into Paihia, just a 20-minute stroll, or take a quick 4-minute ride to the heart of town. It’s the perfect blend of calm, convenience, and beauty for your getaway!
