Vintage Christie bnb is a quiet haven set in a large garden area within 5 minutes walk to Havelock North Village located in the North Island of New Zealand. There is an abundance of cafes, bars, boutique shops and a supermarket located within walking distance. Guests will enjoy privacy and generous self-serve breakfast supplies so they are not tied to specific meal times. A privately accessed, clean self-contained ensuite space. Facilities are not shared with me. A separate space is also available for booking at the same rate which can accommodate a couple. Enquiries are welcome. From the comfortable queen bed you can enjoy the garden outlook. Take time to relax in the hot tub which is located in the garden outside the studio. Have breakfast on the studio verandah. A guest lounge which is accessed via an outside entrance can be enjoyed for reading, meals and relaxing. This is a light airy space with a sofa and comfy reading chair. Parking on the road side is always available. Check when booking if back lawn parking is an option. This is weather and size of vehicle dependent. This is a quiet location which can be enjoyed by guests who want to get out and about to enjoy what the region has to offer. Tracks for walking and cycling, wineries and a multitude of cafes and dining venues to suit all budgets and tastes close by.

I have lived in this original orchard villa since 1986 and get much enjoyment out of hosting guests who are visiting this Great Wine Capital of the World. Vintage Christie has been run as a bnb since 2014 and guests can be confident of experiencing a private and quiet time during their stay. I enjoy making and providing a range of breakfast supplies which are available in the room. I am a teacher of Materials Technology and love spending any spare time in my sewing room at the front of the house. I also have taught community exercise classes for many years and still take a walking group between September and April when daylight saving hours are on.

Hawkes Bay has been recognized as the newest Great Wine Capital of the World with 30 Cellar doors in addition to an abundant supply of eateries (over 35 within 10 mins walking distance) cycle and walk ways and great beaches. If you are into getting out and about to walk, run or cycle there are hills, peaks, flat terrain on which to do so. If you want to stay closer to home Havelock North village is 5 minutes walk away from your bedroom, so no need to use a vehicle. There are numerous cafes, restaurants, clothing stores and a movie theatre to spend time in. Plenty of choice for eating out within walking distance. Mexican, Indian, Thai, Chinese, Japanese, Mediterranean, Irish pub, fusion food, fine dining, pizza or fish and chips; we have it all in our village.
