About this property

Vintage with modern touches by the sea

We are just two houses away from the walkway down to the beach. Our bach is a lovely 1920s cottage with French doors, large deck and 3 bedrooms. Separate lounge, combined kitchen/dining with french doors onto the deck. We have just undergone a significant renovation and updated the kitchen (including a dishwasher), modernised the bathroom, as well as new flooring in kitchen, dining, laundry and bathrooms and a full repaint throughout. We have big comfy modern sofas to sink into and new beds, and enough vintage bits to keep it all cute and eclectic. We also have a collection of NZ art on display. Arrive, park your car and walk everywhere...we are a minute from the village shops, movies, library, banks, cafe's and a short walk to the beach and playgrounds.

We are kid friendly and have a good selection of toys, books and dvds. There are two playgrounds nearby as well as a huge grass reserve with trees and also a public paddling pool by the beach which is very popular with all kids. We are fully fenced. Brand new gas fire and infinity hot water keeps everyone toasty and comfortable....



Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$60.00 per stay); Linen (Required, NZ$10.00 per person);

A classic beach holiday
A return visit for us to the bach. Great location, so handy to beach and shops. The house is great for kids, and well set up with what you need for a beach holiday. We like having the wifi detox too!

We spent a great week in this wonderful house. The location is impressive, close to the beach and yet within walking distance to all shops and restaurants. The surrounding area also leaves nothing to be desired. All in all, highly recommended...

Welcoming family holiday house
The photos don’t do this place justice. The furnishings and general comfort were better than we expected. Great for our 3 generation whānau with welcome books and toys for the kids (2 & 5). Well located close to the beautiful beach. My only question is the rate - it seems high for a small South Taranaki town that’s not an in-demand holiday destination.

A lovely tidy house for a family.
We were thrilled the property was fenced and safe for small children to run freely. The outdoor area was a quiet, relaxing space for a small group to eat outside. So close to the beach. A perfect spot. Thanks.
