Holiday homes

Holiday homes

Northland has a large fluctuating population, many of them holidaymakers. At weekends and during the summer holidays, city dwellers often head for their baches (holiday homes), many of which are on the east coast. These are at picturesque Matapōuri, north-east of Whangārei.
