About this property

Pātiki cottage - Pakawau

This historical and cozy bach has a rural outlook and is just a short stroll to the beach. A character bach that started life as a Mill worker’s hut, it has since been a holiday park cabin and home. It is now enjoyed as a holiday house, and is well equipped for your stay. This is the place to stay if you want a true kiwi bach experience and don’t expect perfection.

The bach is a perfect location to get to the best parts of Golden Bay: Wharariki, Farewell Spit, Whanganui Inlet & Kaihoka lakes. There are many great walks and beaches nearby, good swimming spots at Pakawau Beach, along with abundant birdlife. The bach is also in the heart of Kingfish country - an incredible flats fishing experience and an international fly fishing destination.

Sunny & warm the bach is perfect for visits all year round. There is a new log burner with plenty of wood making it very cosy in winter. There is lots of outdoor furniture, board games, books, TV and DVD player, BBQ, and the kitchen is very well equipped. We are chipping away to make improvements all the time.

Pets are welcome and encouraged! The section is fully fenced. We just ask that you clean up after them & not let them on the furniture.

Currently the bach can sleep 4-5 people comfortably (1 x Queen bed, 1 x double bed/with single bunk on top).

Please bring your own linen & towels. (Pillows, Duvet & cover provided)

We ask guests to leave the back as they found it- clean & tidy.

Great stay

Lovely well-equipped bach a stone’s throw away from a gorgeous beach. Kids and dog had the best time running around. Would love to visit again.

Chill out in Pakawau

We enjoyed the low key nature of this listing. We'd just come off the Heaphy Track so appreciated having a washing machine, and nice cosy woodburner. A greta place to chill out and relax, and a base for more exploration in Golden Bay.

Comfortable home in a great location

The cottage was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was particularly good and the dogs enjoyed the sand flats and Pakawau Beach.
