NEWS FROM THE ISLAND

THE HEIGHT OF THE HOLIDAY SEASON ENDS THIS WEEKEND.

The main rush of New Zealand's annual holidays runs from a week before Christmas to the  end of the second week of January.

It took a while for summer to make up its mind to come and visit us, but it did not stop the holiday makers from coming. Then when the summer said it hadn't forgotten  us after all, suddenly all the holiday rentals were booked and those of us who kept them ready for the incoming were run off our feet.

Of course, 2 - 3 weeks was not long enough after people visited the Island. As one guest said, this Island has got everything for a perfect get away from it all : " It's close to the bush, close to the water and close to Auckland." Then the next comment always is, how much does it cost to buy a place here? So today I delved into the New Zealand TradeMe site to give a selection.  Keeping in mind that $1,000 NZ = $705.30 US = $666.95 Euro


Of course everyone would like Mansion House, the historic house in the park which has a whole bay to itself. There seems to be two definite choices to make - being right on the waterfront and in the middle of the action with your boat at the bottom of your lawn, or tucked away in your own private sanctuary up on the hills.
