Raglan







We’re all settled in Raglan and love our new place! It’s spacious, comfortable, beautiful native timber hardwood floors, anything we need is already here. Jed and Kay, our landlords, found us in Hamilton to give us a key and let us in early. We've got a standing invite to a bbq at their dairy farm in Otorohanga.

It rained the day after we arrived for a solid 24 hours, so we were a little nervous, but it’s been warm and sunny since. We’ve explored a little, driving out to the nearby surf beaches at Ngarunui and Whale Bay. Our house, within an easy walk to town and with its neighbouring goat, overlooks the inlet and Te Kopua beach. It’s all black sand. We can get some Internet on the steps in front of the library during business hours but not on the weekend.
