Summer break

An easy place to relax at . Great for walks on the beach ,especially when the tide is out in the evening . Being boomers we normally watch the 6pm TV news while eating dinner on holiday but the Chrome cast dongle was not picking up the signal at all some evenings . So we were glad we had brought a lot of DVD's and Cd,s for entertainment . We had a 45 minute power cut one evening (10pm till 10:45pm ) and were glad to find a candle in the kitchen . The 4.7 earthquake one afternoon made us feel at home (we live in Lower Hutt).But we got the complete rest we were after and came away happy . A great place to sit out side at night , view the stars , and see who spots the most satellites going by .

A real bach

Great traditional Bach with mod cons. Great area for kids but we left our ones at home. Handy to wedding venue and not overly expensive. Recommended for those that like a little bit of traditional Bach living.
