Driftwood, a taste of real New Zealand living . . .
Having travelled extensively for many years Richard and Vanessa Owen realized not only was their home Driftwood quite unique... but that the best times they had travelling were when they were meeting people in their own homes.
Driftwood is home to Richard, Vanessa and their family, they have opened their favourite places on this beautiful estate to fellow travellers. The property and family were featured in the December '09 issue of New Zealand Life & Living magazine, click here to see the article.
During the 8 years they sailed from England to New Zealand, Richard and Vanessa were hugely successful in hosting weddings and honeymoon charters in exotic places on their yacht Dream On.... . Now settled at Driftwood they are specializing in simple, elegant weddings on the beach with perfect honeymoon accommodation. Vanessa is a Leiths qualified chef and they are accommodating and discreet.
