The land
Forty acres, one gate, and the sea below.
Northrye sits on a headland the family has run for three generations, half of it left to the wind and the wallabies. The cabins were built low so the ridgeline stays the tallest thing on it. What you get is a working coast, not a resort.
- 01 A ten-minute walk down to a beach you will likely have to yourself.
- 02 Solar, rainwater and a wood stove. Off-grid on purpose, not by accident.
- 03 No reception desk. A code on the gate, a lit fire, and a number if you need us.
While you're here
Ways to spend a day.

Getting here
About an hour south by car, sealed road to the gate, then 400m of gravel. Directions and the gate code arrive the morning of check-in.
Check in and out
Check in from 3pm, check out by 10am. No desk to find, no keys to collect. Late checkout can be added at booking.
House rules
Two-night minimum, well-behaved dogs welcome at the Headland, and please carry out what you carry in. The coast stays clean because guests keep it that way.
