About this property

The Little Black House

  • Situated 8km north of Kaikoura on a rural block of land close to the Hapuku river bike trails and local surf breaks.

    It’s a small house with luxury fittings. Enjoy the view out to sea and over Kaikoura from the comfort of your bed....or lay on the sofa and open the windows to watch the Bellbirds and Tuis feeding from the trees surrounding the house.

    The house has two raised mezzanine floors - with a King Single on one, and a Queen bed on the other. The living room has a sofa that can be utilised as a further single bed if required, and a cot is avaliable on request. Please note, the mezzanine floors are accessed via a steep staircase.

    We would love to host you in our contemporary designed little black house. Please come stay and forget about your worries with us.
