Vintage with modern touches by the sea

We are just two houses away from the walkway down to the beach. Our bach is a lovely 1920s cottage with French doors, large deck and 3 bedrooms. Separate lounge, combined kitchen/dining with french doors onto the deck. We have just undergone a significant renovation and updated the kitchen (including a dishwasher), modernised the bathroom, as well as new flooring in kitchen, dining, laundry and bathrooms and a full repaint throughout. We have big comfy modern sofas to sink into and new beds, and enough vintage bits to keep it all cute and eclectic. We also have a collection of NZ art on display. Arrive, park your car and walk everywhere...we are a minute from the village shops, movies, library, banks, cafe's and a short walk to the beach and playgrounds.

We are kid friendly and have a good selection of toys, books and dvds. There are two playgrounds nearby as well as a huge grass reserve with trees and also a public paddling pool by the beach which is very popular with all kids. We are fully fenced. Brand new gas fire and infinity hot water keeps everyone toasty and comfortable....



Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$60.00 per stay); Linen (Required, NZ$10.00 per person);

A wonderful place to kick back and sew up a storm for a week. Without YouTube I got an amazing amount accomplished, and still had time to walk the Opunake trail, visit the beach and frequent the fantastic local cafes. Definitely recommend.

Quaint property in great location
Comfortable little house handy to the beach and town, interesting layout, removal of the bath in favour of a second toilet would be an improvement. The sunny deck is great and access to the garden crops in sesson is very generous. Would stay again but not in the bunks!

Didn’t want to leave!
Really enjoyed staying at this property! Excellent location, super clean and tidy and really well stocked up on everything from books and games, to blankets, pillows, towels etc. Fully fenced section was great for my kids. Can’t fault it at all. Look forward to returning soon!
