"The Granny Flat"

We have always called our wee cabin "The Granny Flat", even though it has never been used as one. With a night-store heater that keeps it cozy in winter; a double bed; bathroom and full kitchen. Very close to a beach that often has dolphins right inshore. Located on a large double section with the owner's residence next door. Enter through the shared gate to access your stand alone, one bedroom flat with everything you need. Then unplug, relax and enjoy the birdsong. Friendly dogs welcome.

Riviera Shack

Great little spot. 200m from the North beach & River. 5min walk to central Riverton - supermarkets & cafes. You maybe able to bring your dog - please check with me first. Dogs need to be kept on a lead around our yard at all times (because of our animals). And they also need to be able to stay off the furniture. The Shack (and yard) are not child safe, please let me know if you have a young child with you. We are also on the Te Araroa Trail, so great for backpackers.
