Andrea Wildbore
Thanks again Wendy for another great stay, lovely bach and such a comfy bed. Awesome coast and surrounding area, got out to white rock too
Jim Terpstra
Perfect cosy bach. Quite close to interesting rocky beach.
Kartik
We had a fantastic stay at your holiday home. The house was spotlessly clean and very well appointed – the kitchen had absolutely everything we needed, and the open-plan living area was light and airy. We especially loved sipping our morning Chai on the deck, looking out to the expansive east-coast wild sea. The entire place felt wonderfully earthy, nestled among rolling hills with native bush and that wild sea all around us. The bedroom was cosy expansive view of the sea and the rising sun. On a cold day, the fireplace was an absolute treat, keeping the bach perfectly warm. It was the best bach we’ve ever stayed in – down-to-earth, beautiful and calming. Thanks again for being such friendly and accommodating hosts. We’d happily return and will certainly recommend your place to friends and whanau!
