A 100 year plus villa home under the Tararua Ranges on the outskirts of Levin that has been lovingly restored. The garden is well known in the district and further afield, and in the past we have hosted garden tours, weddings and fun raisers.
Guests will enjoy welcoming and respectful hosts, and the experience of quiet and peaceful surrounds. There is the option of requesting an evening meal at an extra cost using seasonal garden produce, which you can enjoy with your hosts or on your own.

Other things to note
Teresa and Paddy welcome you to Marangai Garden's. Our bed and breakfast was Teresa's life long dream, and with the support of Paddy and our four grown up children we opened for business in 2018. We throughly enjoy meeting the wide variety of interesting people from all over the wold and learning their stories.

Paddy is a recently retired Primary School Principal, and his interests include squash, the All Blacks, Thai cooking, reading, and walking.

Teresa works at a local country school, and her interests include home decor creativity, gardening, cooking, and reading.

We both enjoy time with family and our 10 grandchildren, and frequently have big family dinners.

We look forward to sharing our home with you.
