We’ve lived in Tauranga two years after moving from Auckland for a change in lifestyle. I’m originally from Wellington and my wife Louise is from the UK, and we have a 14yo son, 11yo daughter and a black lab named Flint. Apart from caring for the Avocados, we enjoy outdoor activities including mountain biking, fishing, swimming, travelling, and of course meeting and hosting new guests.
Enjoy the peaceful, safe, quiet countryside, a truly idyllic location away from the hustle and bustle of city life and yet only a 15 minute drive to the centre of Tauranga. Beautiful McLaren Falls is only 7 minutes away, offering picturesque walks, kayaking, bird watching, and is also a great picnic spot. Hobbiton is a 45 minute drive away where you can meander around the movie set and reminisce over the unique movie setting and countryside. Mount Maunganui Beach is great for swimming, surfing, paddle boarding plus enjoy the amazing views at the top of Mt Maunganui or enjoy a pleasant stroll around the Mount, this is a 25 minute drive from Baybell Lodge. Tauranga Crossing which contains 100+ shops, restaurants, bars and cinemas is only 5 mins drive away.
