Westie sur la côte ouest - Privé, WIFI gratuit, cottage entier

YOUR PRIVATE GETAWAY IN TAYLORVILLE. 

"Westie on the West Coast" was a nickname coined shortly after our family purchased this property.

Westie is our family holiday home, located in Taylorville, West Coast, New Zealand.  Although modernized, we have respected this home has stood since early 1900s.

With the ability to sleep up to 7 people, this cosy classic kiwi home, is nestled in bushland. This home is just 10 minutes from Greymouth, but feels a world away. 
-Stunning bush location
-Short Walk to the famous Taylorville swimming hole in the river
-Quintessential West Coast log burner sits central in the lounge

Although this house is the perfect place to just retreat, relax and rest - there is also a multitude of activities located nearby:
- Local Mountain Bike Tracks: Moonlight Track, The Croesus Track, and Napoleon Hill as examples
- Paparoa Track: Situated just 10 minutes from Black Ball "Westie" is a perfect base before going to the Paparoa Track. Paparoa Track crosses the Paparoa Range. It takes you through alpine tops, limestone karst landscapes and thriving rainforests, and provides breath-taking views
- Brunner Historic Mine: Just minutes from our Westie you will find the historic Brunner Mine site. This was one of the country's earliest industrial sites where coal was mined and coke, firebricks and other products were manufactured from the 1860s until the 1940s.
