About this property

Gorgeous, comfortable holiday house

A great place to relax and unwind for either a short or long stay. Is within an easy five minute walk to all local community clubs (golf club, boat club and combined sports club), general store, cafe and fish and chip shop. Local museum is open daily.
The harbour provides a great place to swim with good fishing for the kids at the wharf or if it's 'real fishing' you prefer, the charter boats leave from the local wharf too.
Renowned Te Puia Hot Springs are within 5 mins drive and are certainly worth a visit..
Absolutely NO DOGS allowed on the premises

Extras: Linen (Optional, NZ$15.00 per person); Please request at time if booking. NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave;

Lovely Stay

Thank you, Patsy, for another great stay. Your home is in such a beautiful spot, and we really enjoyed it. It was a bit of a shame that some parts of the oven didn’t work since we were baking a lot over the weekend. But we still had a good time and really appreciated being able to check out later. I’d happily recommend your place to other families.
