About this house rental
Hidden away in a quiet part of the coastal village of Kakanui our bach is the perfect spot for small families or couples alike.
The Hideaway provides a clean and comfortable place to enjoy your Kakanui holiday, we hope you'll enjoy our wee bach as much as we do. The garden and house is child friendly and we have provided some toys and games for the kids to enjoy! There are 2 bedrooms one with a queen size bed and the other has bunks, we can also provide and camp stretcher for an extra $20 per night.
Warm and cosy, the heat pump provides quick, clean and efficient heating for the whole bach and there is an electric blanket on the queen bed and wheat bags/hot water bottles are provided for the bunks. We now have gas hot water - no waiting for the boiler to heat up!!
The drive provides off road parking with enough room for 2 vehicles.
Linen available for hire please enquire for more information and prices when booking.
There is a wonderful outdoors area which gets all day sun when you want to sit and relax, the garden is fully fenced and there is a BBQ for you to fire up and enjoy, help yourself to some herbs out of the herb garden and create something delicious! Or head into Oamaru (10 min coastal drive) for a choice of great cafes and restaurants. Head north to check out the award winning Riverstone or south to Moeraki and visit Fleur's Place. In fact you don't have to go very far at all as Kakanui has a fabulous cafe of its own, Coast serves some of the best fish and chips around, eat in or takeaway.
In a few minutes you can be strolling along the gorgeous Campbells Bay, swimming, fishing, surfing, whitebaiting or checking out the rock pools. Playing tennis, spotting penguins, seals and even the occasional dolphin, building sandcastles or playing a round of golf!
A great place to take some time out, relax and enjoy!

Our stay in Kakanui was exactly what we were looking for. A cosy bach steps away from the ocean. We had everything we needed there and Sarah was wonderful to deal with. Thank you Sarah for taking great care of us. Gael and Brian (all the way from Canada)

A cute, wee cottage that was clean and comfortable. Loved sitting on the verandah listening to the waves and the birds tweeting. So relaxing. The 5 night stay was wonderful.

It was an ideal stay for us. Quiet and very relaxing. A lovely welcoming holiday home.
6 / 10Average·Aug 2023
Cute and tidy but small batch for our family getaway.
Excellent gas hot water pressure and working heat pump helped to keep drafts at bay but single glazed crying windows in winter made quite a mess.
Overall, a good place to crash after a busy day of activity 👍
