Not your typical bach, Bay Cottage is a true retreat from the hustle and bustle of busy holiday spots. Set amongst a lush green working orchard, this studio-style cottage is a beautiful, quiet, and romantic escape where you can really switch off. No TV, just a symphony of cicadas, native birds and the wind blowing through the organic avocado and mandarin trees. The bright and comfortable cottage has one bedroom and lounge area, a separate kitchenette, and a bathroom. The kitchenette is well set-up for quick breakfasts and light lunches, while the the bedroom/lounge area offers relaxing indoor-outdoor flow onto the surrounding rural scenery. Two sundecks sit on either side of the cottage, one sheltered and one sun-drenched; no matter where the wind blows, you'll find the ideal spot to sit and enjoy a glass of wine, or to breathe in some fresh air while you read your book. When it's time for dinner, Bay Cottage is a quick five-minute drive to <a href="https://www.bachcare.co.nz/holiday-homes-accommodation/golden-bay/takaka">Takaka</a> township offering some great places to eat. Or we highly recommend driving a little bit further, 15-minutes up the coast, to the world-famous Mussel Inn! For days exploring Golden Bay, you are only 10 minutes from <a href="https://www.bachcare.co.nz/holiday-homes-accommodation/golden-bay/pohara-beach">Pohara</a> Beach, and there are lots of local walks around the area, including the famous <a href="https://www.bachcare.co.nz/holiday-homes-accommodation/nelson-golden-bay/abel-tasman-national-park">Abel Tasman</a> tracks. Unplug and find yourself refreshed at Bay Cottage!
