A wonderful house with wonderful hosts to match! Everything was clean and easy to find and they went out of their way to make sure we had a lovely stay. Would definitely book to come back again!
We had to find temporary accommodation while house repairs were being done, and we were so lucky to find Craig and Megan with their pristine bach.
While we weren't on holiday and still had work and school drop offs, we couldn't have picked a more suitable residence. The bach has literally everything you need and more.
From USB wall outlets, to blazingly fast WiFi speeds, and super comfortable beds we felt right at home. While also being able to wake up to incredible ocean views that made you think maybe there really is a God, right on our doorstep too!
We had our own privacy right from day one. Craig and Megan would periodically text us making sure everything was perfect for our stay. 10/10 hosts.
If you're gonna book a bach, book this one. Be it for a holiday kayaking on the ocean, or a working holiday to escape the city. It's worth every penny.
What a wonderful place this is. It is so calm and serene with a stunning outlook over the surrounding farms. The place is a great size, it literally has everything you need (the kitchen is very well stocked and there are lovely Eco-store bathroom products to use, plus there was fresh milk, towels, a dishwasher, and washing machine), it is impeccably clean and beautifully decorated. There is a separate indoor dining room as well as your own deck to eat outside and soak in the sun and country views. There is an off-road place to park your car. The owners are lovely and made the check-in process very easy, especially as we were arriving quite late at night. They were also very accommodating for us. We loved it here and will definitely stay here again if we are up in this part of the country! Highly recommended!
My parter and I stayed at this lovely holiday home for a short period of time, and had more then we could have asked for. Brilliant location and is very close to everything. Graham was very efficient, and is very easy to get in contact with. We will definitely be staying here again in the future.
