A great article on our wee town! Still plenty to do in the area, even in the cooler months :)

An eatery gets an outdoor upgrade, sunny days spur coffee cart orders, and a holiday park owner says the quieter period is a chance for maintenance.

For the last few years Steve and I have been renovating the units as time and money permits! 🕐💰
We then struggled finding art work for the walls that we loved, so they have been bare.... until we were invited along to Kerrie's opening night at the Havelock Gallery.
🖼 Kerrie is a local artist (and fabulous human being) who creates beautiful pieces on all sorts of mediums using the same principles as old school blue prints and sun exposure 🌞
We fell I'm love and now have 2 of her pieces in our home, and a selection of them in the renovated units.

Check her out and give her a follow at Fern and Thistle

Fabulous news that Havelock has a Coastguard Boat for the summer! Hopefully the trial proves worthwhile and we keep it! 🛥⚓️⛵️

Coastguard Marlborough has been relying on “Good Samaritans” and private companies to help cover large sections of the Sounds for years.

💯 This Lodge is awesome! It's quite often a lunch stop for Steve and I when we are out on the water and the fish aren't biting!
Fabulous new manager this year, and great staff all round.

Need a night in Havelock before getting the water taxi to Te Rawa..... give us a call!

You can’t pay enough for the tranquillity offered at this lodge in Te Hoiere/Pelorus Sound.

🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️Right out our back gate is a awesome wee walk up to the waterfall track, and if your super keen up Mt Takorika. The local Menz Shed has a stock of these handy walking sticks for you to grab on your way past... and pop back when you are done :)
