Our complex and ever-changing world can be a difficult thing to explain to tamariki. To help, Stuff has launched KEA Kids News - a twice-weekly video bulletin of news by kids for kids.

Just like the smart and curious kea, our inquisitive kid reporters will peck through local, national and international news to find stories and ask questions that connect with seven to 11-year-olds, to show them that truth is not only stranger than fiction but often a lot more interesting.

This boutique hotel offers a new owner the opportunity to combine a healthy and diverse lifestyle with an interesting and profitable business which naturally scales down during winter, allowing for a holiday.

Each of the five beautifully appointed suites has been subtly themed, providing individual charm as well as comfort. In the heart of the lodge is a spacious, recently renovated farmhouse kitchen enjoying garden and orchard views. A large woodburner with wetback heats the water for a series of radiators around the house, ensuring year-round warmth.

Organically managed, the four-hectare property provides the ability to live from the land with honey, fruit trees, berry patches, vegetable gardens, olives and grazing for sheep, cattle and horses. The small Chardonnay vineyard with a careful selection of clones produces a succulent house wine thoroughly enjoyed by guests from all around the world.

A range of useful ancillary sheds and buildings offers space for projects, hobbies, storage and accommodation for staff. Other facilities on the property include a petanque court, croquet lawn and small gymnasium overlooking the swimming pool.

This extraordinarily diverse and unique lifestyle is ideally located on State Highway One, less than a five-minute drive from central Blenheim and 15 minutes from numerous winery cellar doors, restaurants and the airport.

Offers from $2,500,000 plus GST (if any)

Furnished or unfurnished rooms is available from 6 Sept. Get a feel that you are in a mini-resort with a tropical garden, swimming pool and BBQ. Kitchen and 3 other living spaces to share.
We can discuss if longer then 1 December.

There are at this stage 3 rooms available. 2 rooms sharing a lounge, bathroom and toilet with another mature guy living in the house as well.
A smaller room is $290 per week and the bigger room is $350 a week. This including power, water and internet for one person. If two people its another $100 a week.

The upstairs en-suite is furnished and have two private balconies. One turning out to sea view over Rangitoto and the other balcony in to the pool and tropical landscape garden. It got a queen bed and single bed, mini lounge, private separate toilet and bathroom. You also have your own Fridge/freezer/coffee maker and Netflix/light-box and free internet.

Per week $450 for one person. Extra person per week $100 including power, water and internet.

The house is set up as a holiday house, why I'm a bit careful with long term renting. However, we can discuss further if you have more long term in mind.

At the moment I have another nice mature guy staying in the house. House is large, so still heaps of space for privacy.

If you wish to see one of the rooms, please call or text me to organize a time for a visit.
Looking forward to hear from you :)
