Great Barrier Island - where to stay

This gorgeous bach is where we stayed. A lounge, bedroom and bathroom, all that is required.


Invisibly on this hill is a small house - well that's the neighbour's bigger place. Ours is a tiny dot to the left. Not a lot of noise from much apart from the birds. And the whole island seems like this. Half of it is owned or managed by DOC, so is totally 2nd growth bush, manuka mainly.


And of course, everybody needs their own private beach. Just down the track.


And the sun setting on the horizon.


What exactly is it about being in isolation that gives you such a rest in your soul?
