Fernbank In the Middle of the Abel Tasman NP

Perfect place to get away from it all, the small township of Torrent Bay has around 40 permanent homes most of which are empty through the year. The bay livens up in the summer when most of the properties are used which gives a friendly atmosphere. Kid safe beaches and lagoon, lots of bush walks on your doorstep. Enjoy the feeling of settling down to a refreshing drink while the day trippers are rushing off to board a water taxi. There are 2 homes side be side so larger groups can be catered. The space Due to being totally off grid there is no power points available in the units, the lighting and the fridge freezer are run from solar power. Cooking facilities is a gas stove and oven. Mobile reception is also patchy, but can usually be found on the front beach, with vodaphone network being better that spark. There is a pay phone in the shed by the jetty with free local calls. Sunday Star Times had an good article, on Torrent Bay, on the stuff web site back in February last year which can still be searched.
