North Base House accommodates 10 people in four bedrooms with a range of sleeping arrangements possible. Two of the bedrooms have super king beds that convert to twin king singles. They both have full ensuites. There is one standard double bedroom also with ensuite. The 4th bedroom is set up with four standard single beds in bunks. Each bedroom has USB plugs and each of the four bunks has its own light, power and USB.
There is one bathroom with shower for general use, and a fully-equipped laundry with dryer. Also an outdoor shower with hot and cold running water.
The living area comprises a fully-equipped kitchen with microwave, oven and dishwasher. There’s a choice of drinking water: pure rainwater stored in a tank and run through a carbon filter, or the normal town supply. There is Wifi and a late-model Samsung Smart TV with all the apps built in for you to stream your favourite shows. The area is served by a lovely log fire for when staying in the shoulder and winter seasons.
The living areas all flow seamlessly so you can enjoy a barbeque or a home cooked meal, with both indoor and outdoor seating for 10. The lounge, dining and kitchen open out onto a large deck, which overlooks the lights of town and beyond to the water. The property is northwest facing, with lounge and deck looking out to the east. This puts the sun perfectly where you want it for the holiday lifestyle: shade on the deck in the hot afternoons and no morning sun in the bedrooms.
North Base House has been designed for an extended family or a group of friends to enjoy their holiday, all together under one roof. It has parking for up to four cars stacked.

“We stayed in Paihia for my son’s wedding. It was a great house for extended family to stay. Every bedroom had a bathroom, the living room was big and comfortable. We loved the large deck. There were plenty places near to walk the dog. We would definitely recommend Northbase.”

“A lovely spot to visit and awesome that it’s dog friendly. Rob was a great host, lots of information on things to do. Plus the main shopping street and restaurants are an easy walk away. Completely recommend. Thank you for a lovely stay! It was nice to meet you.“

“We had a lovely stay at Northbase. Everything was very neat, nicely laid out and signposted clearly. It was very central and easy to access the Paihia shops. I would highly recommend it to any visitors.“

“Beautiful house to stay. Felt like home, didn’t want to leave. House was nice and modern, very warm, without having to use any heating. wifi went out for one night for a few hours, but my family actually enjoyed it as we got to spend some family time and play board games, I’m not complaining at all. Recommend.”

Great place to stay for a large family, perfect location just across central paihia. Home has all equipment needed and really love the rooms with bathroom. Nice and very helpful landlord! Will definitely visit again.
