About this property

Perfect Summer Bach

Fully appointed 2 bedroom bach only 2 mins drive to surf beach, and 7 minutes to the lifeguard patrolled Ruakaka Beach.
Recently redecorated, this wee bach is the perfect place to create family memories.
Recommended for 2 adults and 2 kids.
Queen Bed for parents, kids room has king single and single bed, and even a pull out sofa bed for the teen.
Close to shopping center, skate park, river and the beach. Backs onto flat reserve for the kids to play on.
Sunny deck to relax on in summer and a fire place to keep you warm on cooler winter nights.

A good getaway
Great place but extremely dusty - not that clean. I am allergic to dust so I didn't enjoy it as much as I should have. The rest was excellent.
