About this Holiday House

In its small town location, this is a self clean experience. Please leave the house the way you would like to find it. Sheets, pillow covers and towels are not provided so please bring your own. Our family wants to share the reality of kiwi batch life with you. Keeping it real…If you require things to be perfect, this isn’t the place for you.

13 of us all had a bed and space to be inside and outside at this picturesque location with lots to do including kayaking, swimming, so many photo opportunities as well as easy access to all the area had to offer. Easy to find. So many cleaning products covered all that was needed. Kitchen was a bit small but we managed. One toilet, but ones next door to playground if needed. Kids had a ball. The experience has provided a lot of memories .

Our family had a lovely relaxing weekend at this old but charming house. The views over the estuary from the upstairs deck, especially at dawn, were perfect and we all loved bobbing around it in the kayaks (water was crystal clear). We also went for a bush walk, played tennis and popped over to Nugget Point. A classic New Zealand crib (bach)!

This property to could with a very good professional clean . Not a good idea to trust people to clean up properly when they leave for the next people coming in .The kitchen is very small and the dish washer was not working . We would not return
