Descripción de nuestro barrio y la zona en que se encuentra
PekaPeka is a small seaside settlement, with views both to the sea on one side and the surrounding hills and mountain ranges on the other. There is a very efficient train service into Wellington, our capital city, and the train takes exactly an hour. There are many beautiful walks in the area, wonderful beaches, and then all the attractions of the city of Wellington, theatre, opera, galleries, and very good restaurants.
Wellington gives easy access to the South Island. One can easily fly from Wellington, or take the inter-island ferry, either as a foot passenger, or taking a car.

Dónde ir y qué hacer mientras se esté en nuestra casa
The house is in open country, but a short drive from several lively beach cafes. One can take a day trip by boat to Kapiti Island, where kiwis can be seen. There are many beautiful native bush walks, and almost the best thing is to stay at home and watch the sun go down over the island from our sit-ooterie ( a term for a Scottish drinks hut).
It is easy to go to the South Island from Wellington, and quite possible for a day trip, or of course, longer. If your interest is skiing, there are wonderful ski fields at Mt Ruapehu, just 4 hours drive away, and also trout fishing at Lake Taupo, in the same area.
Lo qué nos gusta y lo qué no... Estas son nuestras preferencias y normas domésticas.
I am a single professional woman, a New Zealander by birth, and have lived in the UK for most of my adult life. 3 years ago, I returned to new Zealand to build a house and create a very special garden. I like to return to Europe and the UK most years, but in the Northern Hemisphere summer, although I can be flexible on this.
