Sheep graze the paddock, and a separate cabin offers options for guests, hobbies or a studio. And then there's the beach. Roughly 2km from the ocean, with the Cove Road cycleway just down the road, it's an easy pedal to Waipu Cove - crowned NZ Herald's Best Beach two years running - or a scenic ride the other way into Waipu township for its cafés, shops and famous Scottish heritage.

At Langs, you also enjoy the added luxury of launching boats directly off the sand with a tractor into the sheltered bay. This is a place defined by calm, clarity and connection to the water, set against a stunning pōhutukawa-lined shore. Step outside your door and the beach lifestyle is all yours: surf, swim, fish, or simply stroll along the sand while soaking up the views.
