Amazing location, clean and great for families
Wish we’d stayed longer! Our two night stay with the extended family was perfect in this lovely house. Well provisioned , comfy beds and nice and clean. Location was fabulous with a 4 minute walk to the shops one way and less than a minute the other. Directly opposite the beach, and can park the car up and not use it again for the stay. We’d love to stay again, next time for longer. Thanks so much!

Location was perfect. Older house but well equipped with lots of heaters and fireplace. Just thinking a heatpump may be beneficial as in summer I’d say upstairs would get very hot. Fabulous toys for kids in wardrobes and kayaks etc in garage to use. We did find hot water in kitchen tap was extremely hot so may need to be adjusted. Overall we had such a lovely family holiday in a very nice place. Thank you.

Great find
We had an excellent stay thank you. You cannot beat the house for it's location a short walk from town and the beach. We made use of the kayaks that the hosts keep for guests, my kids loved this! The house was clean and had all the facilities we needed, felt very lucky to be sipping my morning brew on the balcony overlooking the bay, stunning, we'll definitely be back!

‘Under promised and over delivered’. Really brilliant place to stay, super clean, well stocked kitchen area and wood burner. Location is superb set back from main road but with a view of the bay from the bedrooms and balcony. Shirt walk to all amenities. Will definitely be back!!

Winter holiday
The house suited granpa and kuia and extended family perfectly. The central but quiet location meant we didn't use the car and enjoyed a beautiful view. The house is homely and perfectly equipped my daughter loved the coffee machine. Thank you for the lovely break.
