Cute cottage
Loved the location and our overnight stay, so close to the beach. Lovely cottage and outdoor area. The basic areas were very clean, (bedspread & some dishes needed a wash).

Very dissapointing!
Photos are misleading as it makes it look like you are in open spaces with scenic views and nothing around... in reality you are close to a busy road and houses on every side. The water pressure was absolutely terrible and I didn't receive instructions on how to find my destination, codes, keys etc... I had to follow it up myself which was stressful.

Lovely Bach close to beach, river and walks
A lovely Bach, a good size and great for a family of 4. Great to have outdoor space and access to a washing machine. Steps away from the best tavern we've visited in a long time, great food and beer garden!!! We were doing the Paparoa track and the start of the walk is literally across the road. Kayak hire is also doors away, and a short walk to the pancake rocks and great caves to explore. Overall a fabulous stay.

Fully Self Contained Cottage With Everything You Need
Great little house close to the pub and camp and sea. Very comfy and everything you need for a nice comfortable stay away.
Very small things to make it even better, a fan or two for the hotter nights.
An extra tea towel for the dishes.
Thanks we will be back.
