Hayley Morris
Great little beach cotttage, with everything you need for a stay at great barrier. Excellent to have the linen provided and a large fridge, lovely bathroom and outdoor shower. We made use of the sleep out with friends for a few nights and that was brilliant. The screen on the front sliding door was great for keeping cool at night with no mozzies. The kids and our dogs loved the big lawn space, and the outdoor area with bbq and big tables was great for outdoor dining. Even though the cottage is small, the total area with deck and lawn is huge so you don’t feel cramped. We loved the location being closer to the northern end and the pohutakawa swing across the road. Such an idyllic location. Also close to the low tide mermaid pool! Jo is an excellent host who went above and beyond when our ferry trip changed and very responsive from booking to during our stay. We loved bringing our young kids to the barrier for their first time and being able to stay in such a lovely place.
Response from Owner
So great to hear you had such a wonderful time on your holiday. The Bach is fab for little ones with few steps and a big yard. Thank you for staying with us.

This is a gorgeous spot with the property being in immaculate condition - clean and tidy and well stocked with kitchen items. Jo was a great host making sure we knew how to run the generator if needed. Would stay there again.
