Great Kiwi Bach

Had a lovely stay at Foxton, the cottage is a perfect kiwi bach. Location is great close to amenities and an easy walk to the beach. Being able to have gluten free fish ‘n’ chips at Delish takeaways was such a treat. I also had a facial at ‘Beauty and the Beach’, directly opposite the cottage and can highly recommend Chelsea, it was bliss!My 8, 13 and 15 year old loved their stay too, so much to keep them busy.Thanks for letting us stay at your holiday home :-)
