Bay View Beach House - gorgeous seaside cottage with panoramic views over Raglan

Bay View Beach House is a gorgeous little seaside cottage with all day sun overlooking Cox's Bay. It has been tastefully renovated and has all modern conveniences while retaining its bachy, beach cottage feel.

The vast deck offers panoramic views over Raglan and the private open air bath tub is perfect for relaxing and star gazing on moonlit evenings.

Just a short stroll to the beaches of Cox and Lorenzon Bays, and very close to Raglan wharf and town with its retro shops, and excellent cafes.

All linen and towels are provided.

Peaceful and private
Perfect location - 2 minutes to town, yet a quiet peaceful location. Just as lovely as the photos. Spotlessly clean, comfy bed, spacious deck partially covered to enjoy gorgeous views. Highly recommend this lovely spot!

Raglan weekend
Lovely little cottage with great views. Quiet. We would have liked a teapot but otherwise the kitchen had all we needed. The fridge is a bit small and only has a small inefficient freezer compartment. Our only gripe is the fees taken by Bachcare which almost doubled the price and wasn't transparent at the beginning.

Great place to stay in Raglan
This is a great property on a quite street in Raglan. The house is small - probably suits a couple best, with an expansive deck and great views over the inlet. It's a short walk into town, maybe 15 minutes. Coming home requires walking up hills so you need a reasonable level of fitness. Takes about 3 mins to drive. House is well-appointed, There's a bath on the deck which we didn't use, but it looked amazing. Definitely recommend this place for a quiet weekend. Can also highly recommend The Artisan Bakery, and Ulo's restaurant. They were our go-to places to eat. And of course Raglan Roast coffee - the best coffee for the lowest price. If you drink your flat white at the cafe it costs $3. $3.50 for a takeaway.

Like this place very much and will likely book for Xmas again. Just the beds in the bunk room a little uncomfortable and we found it too hot to sit out on the lovely deck - an umbrella might be good. Good to see that the mat with the curly edge has gone!

We loved this place.
We loved this place. Has everything you need for a weekend away. Great spot for kids as they are well contained within the deck area, the outdoor bath is an awesome set up, and the views are great. We were unlucky with the fridge not working during our stay so didn't get a chance to have a cold drink on the deck at the end of the day. We'd love to come back and we'd stay even longer if there was WI-Fi so we can work remotely for weeks!!!!

I would have scored it a 5 star.
I would have scored it a 5 star. The only very minor detail is that I had nowhere to hang my good clothes. Just a free standing clothes rack in the bunk room would have made it perfect. Other than that it was totally amazing. Private , functional with amazing views!!??

An excellent spot with a beautiful view, convenient short drive to the township.
An excellent spot with a beautiful view, convenient short drive to the township. Wasn't brave enough to use the outdoor bathtub as a proper bath - seemed a little too urban for that - but the house was comfortable and neat and tidy. We had terrible weather but the house was warm and it was a great place to sit and watch the rain outside!
