Hello! We're Mark and Kathy Fray. Mark is a skilled carpenter-renovator and Kathy is a maternity writer (+ amateur interior designer). We have the pleasure of being hosts to three completely different properties on AirBNB: Firstly, ONEPU MOANA RETREAT our beautiful southern Hokianga 4-star silver Qualmark'd property (we are the only Qualmark rated holiday house in Opononi). Facilities include six-bedrooms, two kitchen-dining-lounges, large deck with expansive uninterrupted views of the stunning Hokianga harbour, plus spapool terrace. It is an ideal location for extended families and groups of friends - or 5-6 guests wanting their own bedroom each. Secondly, our OLD OWHANGO POST OFFICE LODGE in the National Park ward of the Ruapehu District. This iconic King Country building, has been beautifully renovated with opulent 1930s Art Deco decor. (It is currently going through the comprehensive Qualmark grading process.) It can be booked as the West Wing 1-4 bedroomed Holiday Home including Gatsby-style lounge, stunning kitchen and 4-poster Queen in the master bedroom, Drying room, Gun safe & Fire-pit. And its East Wing can be booked as 1-4 individual/altogether bedrooms with share kitchen-dining & share bathroom. Or the entire interconnecting 7-Bedroom Lodge can be booked for up to 18 guests. Finally, our enormous WHARE KURA (The Old Aratapu School House) outside of Dargaville on the Kaipara's Kauri Coast. This property offers two Guest-Wings, able to accommodate from 1-15 guests in 1-5 bedrooms depending on what is needed. Yet to be renovated, this accommodation is "cheap & cheerful", roomy, and well equipped. With every guest stay we, and our wonderfully dedicated local property managers, always do everything in our power to ensure guests have a wonderful stay, that ideally exceeds their expectations. Love & light, Kathy
