About your host, Tim & Debbie

Tim & Debbie's Photo


Tim and Debbie, nature lovers, have been privileged to have been guardians/owners of the sanctuary for over 30 years and open for guests since 2006. "We have restored the Sanctuary to a natural wilderness and love life in our bush hideaway, where we have raised our 3 daughters, Rebecca, Jacinda and Louisa." As the Conservators (Kaitiaki) of Mount Tutu Eco-Sanctuary, Tim and Debbie will expand your awareness of New Zealand's ecology. In 1993 they protected the Sanctuary forever with a Covenant on their Property Title to the Queen Elizabeth II National Trust and are Life Members of the QEII National Trust.
