Summary: We had a great stay and loved this kiwi bach. It was an easy walk down to the safe estuary beach and a short walk to a little block of shops with a great op shop, little supermarket for supplies and a pizzeria. Lynda was easy to deal with, providing clear instructions.

Summary: The bach is lovely and has a very homely feel. Beds comfy and shower good. Nice outside area and plenty of room to park off street. Quick stroll to the shops or estuary in a quiet street. Well equipped and we would love to stay again sometime. It was height of summer so I took a small fan which was good for us.
