Family Getaway

We loved our stay at Leigh Family Bach! A spacious place the whole family could relax in. We loved the size of the 2 main bedrooms, great for teens! The extra room outside suited our older son and the bedroom off the kitchen suited hubby and I to a T. Great communication with Nigel. Holiday went off without a hitch!

A home away from home. Had everything that was required to make our stay welcoming. Good locality even though we spent a lot of time in the Matakana area. Great to look around Leigh as we all had never been there before.

Wedding

We needed a place near the venue of the wedding in Leigh, and this was ideal. It's an older house without air conditioning, but with the large airy rooms and the fans provided, we were comfortable. The property manager was very responsive, and the checking in and out was simple. Very happy.
