Wonderful experience
We were a group of elderly golfing gents and can’t speak highly enough of both the property and the communications with the proprietors. Exactly as described, the views and location right on the beach are spectacular. The bach is fully equipped and everything worked as expected. Thank you for providing the bach that gave us such a great experience.

A NZ Bach at it's finest
This property is an absolute gem of a traditional kiwi batch. The listing and photos are accurate, it has all you need and some of the most stunning views in NZ. I can't recommend this property enough. Note: 4x4 is an absolute requirement, you will not get up the driveway without it. A tow rope is also recommended just in case.

Sunset galore
Perfect location for a beautiful sunset. Enough beds to accommodate 20 of us. Was able to use BBQ and some pantry items!. Bach would benefit with a little upgrade though and wish it was pet-friendly. Be sure you bring your 4x4 ute as can be a little hassle to walk from the beach to the bach with so much stuff to carry. Angela is friendly and accommodating. Would recommend.

Birthday weekend with whanau
Loved that you could wake up to the sound of the waves and the view from the top bedroom and the beds were comfy. It was big enough for all 11 of us too. Big deck overlooking the sand dunes and only a minute to the beach. The hosts were fantastic and went over and above to courier my necklace to me that I'd left behind. Definitely planning to go back again!

Awesome location. Fantastic large deck. The double kitchens would be fantastic for a group. The house is about 100m off the road onto the beach so just check the tide. We will come back and stay.

Stormy Stay in the dunes
Wonderfull spot! loveley house! we had bad weather and faced with the inconvenience of walking our belongings in and returning after our function at night having to walk throuigh the dunes as the tide was huge and right up to the sand cliffs. The next morning the driveway/track had been washed out by the sea But we could drive down the beach and carry our things out. We still loved our stay and the wild west coast. We suggest access to Torches and a shovel to repair the track if needed would be potential improvements. Thank you for sharing your Whare

Fantastic stay in a unique part of northland
I celebrated my 40th here with some of my closest friends. It offered lots of breakout spaces as well as a large central upstairs area perfect for hosting and entertaining. The house has unrivalled views and access to the beach and the surrounding sand dunes. We are already planning our next stay at this iconic northland location. The owners of the property were easygoing and very easy to contact, making the stay a breeze.

Never in our wildest dreams did we think, we would get the opportunity to purchase this property, but after holidaying here for 23 years, it happened. We love the location and what the house has to offer with its views and entertainment areas, allowing us to share with family and friends. This is our family holiday home that we would like to give others the chance to experience it too. Please leave the property how you find it, clean and tidy.
