About this property

Matakawau Family Bach - 50 minutes from Drury Motorway

This 5 bedroom house with 2 bathrooms is situated in a quiet, rural residential neighbourhood. It captures all day sunshine and is a relaxing retreat for your quiet family holiday stay.

It has expansive harbour views, with several beaches just a few minutes drive away - nearest beach less than five minutes walk away! All have tide concrete boat ramps and great fishing spots.

15 minutes drive to west coast road beach (Hamilton's Gap); 20 minutes drive to the Lighthouse, and multiple Northern Peninsula beaches such as the beautiful Grahams Beach.

The nearest service station, dairy and takeaways is just a 5-minute drive away; and if anything more is required the township of Waiuku is a further 20 minutes from there.

This northeast facing house is near ten years old, but well looked after. It's on a large section with concrete drive and adjoining paddock to kick a ball and play. The closest house is on the same property, 50m away, rented by a quiet couple.

It has open plan living with sliding doors onto a large covered deck and verandah. With beds for up to nine people; master room with queen bed and ensuite, and another four more large bedrooms containing a queen bed, two sets of sturdy wooden bunk beds and a single bed. There is a large laundry, family bathroom and an open plan living area, well equipped kitchen with everything you need for your comfortable stay.

3 bay covered carport right by the front door.

***Please note that there is no barrier/handrail around the part of the deck where the outdoor dining table is, or the back deck/entry steps. If bringing children please be mindful of this. The distance from the deck to the ground is 900mm, which complies with council regulations.

* * *
A bond may be charged additional to rental. This is fully refundable if property is left cleaned in the condition it was on your arrival; and ready for next guest.

IMPORTANT INFO:
- No smoking on the property at all
- No tents, motor homes, caravans or additional guest staying beyond those booked, without prior arrangement.
-The property is located in a VERY QUIET neighbourhood, and is NOT suitable for young adults & large loud groups/parties, so we would appreciate guests respecting our neighbour's quiet lifestyle. Be aware that neighbours will contact us if music/partying & unaccepable behaviour occurs. Which may result in us coming and asking guests to leave immediately; with no refund given.
The property is in an elevated open position, and loud voices/music etc will travel easily across to our neighbours, which we do not want. As a result, quiet families/couples are preferable. Please enquire.


EXTRA:
*Cleaning (Optional, NZ$165.00 per stay);
*Linen optional extra (sheet,duvet cover,pillow case, towel. supply only - NZ$25.00 per person)
