Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Horowhenua District

This place was magic! Great location and wonderful outdoor space. Would absolutely recommend staying here.

We loved the tranquility and peace, and it was a great location near the beach. It's well set up and we loved the secure fences for our two Jack Russells. All in all, a very good choice for a leisurely weekend away from Wellington. It ticked the boxes.

Awesome large house, lots of room to spread out in a big group. Heaps of secure parking. Kids toy garage a huge bonus for a rainy day. Super responsive hosts with flexible check in and check out offered without trouble. Most useful things to improve stay would be some kind of sound system / speaker for playing music near lounge / bbq area, and a coffee machine for the all-important morning caffeine! Thanks heaps for a great stay!

Really beautiful place to stay and just a few steps to the beach! So grateful to be able to take our dogs with us. Absolutely every thing you need and more. Modern furnishings and great art work. Our dogs went straight for the treats left for them and we were left some really yummy fresh bread and eggs, and cookies. Very clean and comfortable Thankyou!

It was an absolute joy to be hosted at Mark's whare. It's a home away from home, well taken care of and well loved, but also very beautiful. The Decor is stunning and it was so easeful to stay for a week. We also forgot an important belonging, Mark went out of his way to make sure it was returned. Just a straight up good host.

We enjoyed our stay, surrounded by a beautiful garden and at walking distance from the beach, restaurants and bakery. Neighboring a reserve at the back was a bonus, so we had more space to play ball games. It was a great place to rest and relax, indoor or outdoor. Board games available to play when it rained. One thing to note is that the bedroom upstairs, although private, it doesn't have a door to block any noise from downstairs. It is a cute cottage with lots of space for everybody.

We stayed here with 12 friends for my husband’s 30th, and it was absolutely perfect. He loves native bush and birds, so this place was a dream. The house feels like a fairytale—spacious, warm, and beautifully designed. The kitchen is well-equipped and flows easily to the patio, where we barbecued and dined outdoors. There’s a handy kitchen window for passing food outside, and both indoor and outdoor tables made it easy to adapt to the weather. The property sits on 7 acres of native bush with walking tracks, birds like piwakawakas following us, and a magical glow worm walk at night. There's an outdoor fire area with couches, ambient lighting, and a speaker system that connects throughout the house and outside. It’s perfect for reconnecting with friends and nature. We left feeling relaxed, happy, and so grateful. Huge thanks to the hosts for the clear communication and thoughtful touches. If you're thinking of booking—do it. You won’t regret it.

Thank you, Marie and Murray. This was already our second time at your place and we loved it. Of course, the amazing weather was such a bonus!😄 We are already planning another visit.

Great host, very welcoming and hospitable. Great comfort and amazing communal area

Mark was responsive and made the check in easy. Awesome set up with the outdoor fire and badminton course. Very close to the beach too.

Putara Base Camp is a fantastic place to stay with a group of friends to escape the city to the countryside. The accommodation is rustic but comfortable and has everything you need, including a great supply of firewood. The space was tidy, and the bathrooms were clean. Michelle communicated the check-in instructions clearly. The countryside surroundings are absolutely gorgeous. Overall, it was an awesome stay. Definitely recommended!

Loved our stay here, beautiful to be out in nature! We were fortunate to be the last guests and would’ve loved to come back!!
