Summary: Our group of 3 adults really enjoyed having a restful holiday in this lovely, well equipped bach. We loved the privacy, bush tracks on the property, sound of the cicadas, fabulous spacious deck and the ability to be in the sun or the shade. So many little seating areas on the bush tracks. We were cosy and didn't need the fire as it was sunny most of the time. The beds were comfortable and the location perfect. We are all walkers and so enjoyed several of the many nearby tracks, as well as swimming at the small local beach and at Pipi Bay, only a short 20 minute walk along the Nydia Track. Our host was fabulous, answering every query we had and giving lots of local tips. Thank you, we'll be returning next year!!

Summary: We as a family absolutely loved this retro Bach. We were only a stones throw away from the boat ramp and jetty as well as the small swimming beach and lovely bush walks. This Bach came well equipped with everything we needed for a great holiday and we were able to take our dog who really enjoyed exploring the garden. We highly recommend this beautiful place.

Summary: This original kiwi Bach was the perfect place for our family over Christmas. Hidden amongst NZ bush and close to the boat ramp, we had everything we needed to enjoy our time away. We were delighted that we were able to bring our two dogs with us! A great place!
