Your senses are filled from all directions; from the deck, take in the rural view to the ocean from 450m up. To your right the hot tub awaits; the surrounding bush hugs the back of The Tram. If you listen carefully you may hear the sound of bell birds and tui and the little mountain stream as it makes it way down the valley. Revitalise your body and mind as you take in the tranquil bush view from the full length glass wall in the shower. To your left the bush opens out into the home paddock where our friends, the piggie girls, friendly goats, alpacas and scratching roosters graze. Sorry no dogs allowed.
