Immerse yourself in the nature, stay off grid and experience the power of being disconnected with no internet or tv to distract you. Natural building materials, finishes, furnishings and linens. Solar powered and filtered rain water collection. Guests call it peaceful, private, magic, spotless, perfectly located, and hard to leave. If you’re craving space, fresh air, and that wild West Coast vibe — this is it.

Carolyn and Richard
Liane and Rick's place at Beaconstone is top notch. Such thoughtful and interesting Kiwiana dēcor, incredibly well-equipped kitchen, woodsy, warm and comfortable in a setting to die for. Loved the spacious living areas and kitchen, the peacefulness of the location and the expansive beautiful bush views. We walked down to the river on a well-formed track and had a lovely swim. We only spent two nights but wish it was two weeks as the area has so much to offer. Liane did everything to make us feel welcome including fresh eggs from her hens. I accidentally left some clothing behind and she posted it to me without any hesitation. I was so grateful. We will definitely be back. Thank you Liane and Rick.
Helen
This cottage floats on a sea of green. Bathed in sunshine and a glimpse of the ocean. Comfortable beds and so clean and tidy. Perfectly located for our West Coast adventure.
Nigel Farmer
Excellent off the beaten track, peaceful and ideal setting. Wish we could have spent a few days there. Next time!! Everything you require.
