Aratapu · 整套出租单元 · 1室2床1.0卫 · 可住4人 · Elegant 1-Bdr Apt in Old School House
This elegant self-contained Guest-Wing is located in one of the most historic buildings in the region: WHARE KURA the 150-yr-old Aratapu School House! The decor is gorgeous and lavish - nicknamed "Ponsonby Chic" style of embracing the Victorian era with a funky edge ... a truly bespoke and roomy "apartment". Amenities Include: > Gorgeous open-plan lounge-office-dining-kitchen > Bathroom with toilet, shower, wash-mach & dryer > Mezzanine bedroom with Queen, and SofaBed > Small front-door deck WHARE KURA is a huge 150-yr-old School House, and this fully self-contained Guest-Wing (with its own entrance) is roughly one-quarter of the large historic building. The decor is STUNNING and fabulous for a Single or Couple wanting quality accommodation in a truly bespoke and authentically unique setting. Also with the SofaBed, this means the apartment can also accommodate two Singles, or Couple+Single, or Parents with 1-2 children. Excellent discounts available here with AirBNB for stays of 28+ nights. POINTS TO NOTE: > The bathroom is off the elegant main living area, and the lavish loft bedroom is above on the mezzanine level. > Like so many historic public buildings rich with heritage, the School House was built on a main road, so there is some traffic noise. > With the original huge SchoolHouse's four classrooms all converted into unique self-contained apartments, then guests may, on occasion, hear some noise from an adjoining guest-wing, however a Noise Curfew of no loud sounds 11pm-7am is generally respected well by all.
Beautiful accommodation very clean and spacious. Would highly recommend this property .
Gorgeous place, had everything you need. Would definitely use again... just as already mentioned be aware that you can hear the traffic and talking from other room, but very very very nice.
This place was AMAZING!! Wonderful to experience a piece of local history be brought to life and shared. The place was beautifully furnished., impeccable. The decor is bold and tasteful and reminiscent of a bygone era. The attention to detail is commendable and work that has been put in to create this space is evident and greatly appreciated. Everything we could possibly need was available. We extended our stay as we loved it so much. THANK YOU.
Kathy's place is so interesting and beautifully finished! We used and enjoyed our porch, cooking in the kitchen, the roomy bathroom, watching tv, eating at the dining table, the washer and dryer, etc. The stairs are well done and easy to navigate up and down. In the description is listed road noise. There is road noise. We used earplugs and the air conditioner fan to help with sleeping.

自我介绍
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
