Only minutes away from Onekakā beach and The Mussel Inn, bring your fishing rod and try catch some dinner from the beach or let The Mussel Inn take care of the meals and drinks.

The accommodation is one large room, containing a queen bed, well equipped kitchenette, wardrobe, desk, and a couch. The bathroom is a separate building with an outdoor walkway leading to a hot shower and bath, washing machine, and a compost loo.

Guest access
The Piggery is located on a large rural block of land, away from the main house although the driveway is shared so you will occasionally see and hear cars on the drive.

It was so relaxing, and we had a great time watching the antics of the pukeko. It was immaculately clean, very comfortable, quiet and private. A real escape from the world. We'd definitely stay again.

What a great accommodation. Surrounded by trees and set in a paddock, we really enjoyed this short stay. What made it very special is the short 3 minute drive to the beach where we saw the sun come up, and thanks to Martina leaving us a fishing rod, could do a bit of fishing. No fish caught this time though!

Peaceful in nature

I loved staying at this place. It is perfect if you want something self contained and quiet in nature, but also close to Takaka and the beach. Good cooking facilities, has everything you need. I'll be keen to go back. Martina was a great host and very responsive. Thanks!
